My thought is that this is an EXCELLENT idea. Howeverthere are files associated with flight plans in the wayof *.pln files native to MSFS as well as formats for FSNavand others. Where are these to be uploaded? is the forumcapable of attachments or perhaps we treat these like wetreat screen caps...on other servers as zip files?I would like us early on to establish a little protocol onthis. Which means possibly:1. Files should be zipped.2. have a naming convention that says which flight planner is to be used, the sim,plane, and the ICAO pairs. example: FSNF2K2PA28KFTYKBNA.zip (or something like that.) In this case, this is FSNav, FS2002, PA28 airplane, Atlanta Fulton County to Nashville. Thats awkward, but you get the idea on some kind of standard.3. Will Avsim start a file section with flight plans? Now that would be excellent.4. For IFR plans, if people could create plans in FSNav and also export to the MSFS flight planner (*.pln) this would allow IFR plans to be flown. Perhaps thats a good idea?Dont mean to put a cramp in style, but a few protocols (notnecessarily these...) would be good to allow quick searchesas well as potentially allow our programmer friends among usto database these things in some way in the future or makesome cool utils.Eric
