FMC flightplans

[Guest aro69]

Hi,According to manual 350 company routes should be available in the FLIGHTPLANS folder, but they are not. A .txt file indicates they "can be extracted by running the installer again", but that does not seem to do the trick...Solutions?Thx and regs,aro69

Hi. I believe that statement is a remnant from the FS9 version of the manual that accidentally made it into the new version. Robert said a while back that no routes are included with this version.Andrew

Alright - thx for clarifying.I'm new to PMDG: Are there any good suggestions for a flightplan converter tool (ie. converting plans into FMC-readable formats)?/ aro69

FS Build, FS COmmander, and Route Finder all do a good job, but all of them are paid services. Personally I just use the free version of Route Finder whihc gives me an unconverted flight plane and enter it by hand as part of my preflight procedure.Andrew

My understanding is that the flightplans are suppose to be there and were left out by mistake and will be included in an update along with other fixes.Michael

They'll be included in the update (which is probably getting released tonight)

Gents-This was an error on my part when we built the release installer.On release day, I had done a bunch of work prepping the final installation build, then spent almost two hours trying to figure out why the installer lost weight during the final build.Well- we discovered why, didn't we?Was entirely my fault- but it's been fixed in the newest version we uploaded- see my post pinned to the top of the forum!
