OT... Regarding flight plans

[rquick 19]

For the past few years I've subscribed to flight explorer, a program that displays real time (-7 minutes or so) flights in the US. This personal addition did not allow access to the flight plans on commerial flights, just position.Today I got an email from them to upgrade to their new PILOTS addition ~15.00 USD a month. What turns out to great about this as a flight simmer is that it has the flight plans included. I've always been interested in flying the same routes the airlines fly on a givin day.Before starting this note, I highlighted Air France Flight 23 from KJFK to LFPG, the flight took off today at 5:25PM EDT. The route:KJFK..BETTE..ACK..TUSKY.N91B.CYMON.NATY.5100N/04000W.NATY.5200N/03000W.NATY.LIMRI.NATY.DOLIP.UM142.LND.UN160.NAKID.UM25.INGOR.UM25.DVL..LFPGI cut and paste it into FSBUILD and there it is! (Try it)Sorry about rambling about another product, I just have a feeling folks out there would like to get their hands on REAL flight plans.
