November 20, 200817 yr I have been trying for ages to generate an authentic flightplan for transatlantic flights (KJFK-EGLL for ex.), but the only option I have is to use Direct-GPS. I want to incorporate North Atlantic airways but can't figure out how. Any help is appreciated.
November 20, 200817 yr Hi,You'll have to use a different flight planner (other than the default FS one) that allows you to create your own waypoints. Then create waypoints at the beginning and end of each track.Hope this helps,--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___ Tom Gibson CalClassic Propliner Page
November 20, 200817 yr FSBuild has the daily and static NA tracks... it's payware and worth every penny it costs. It also exports flightplans for most of the popular addons.DJ
November 20, 200817 yr This site is great:http://rfinder.asalink.net/free/Might not be 100% real, but the plans they generate are usually really good. The site is free too, which is nice :) ------------------------- Craig from KBUF
November 20, 200817 yr I second the recommendation of FSBuild. It is an excellent flight planner and a must have for me. It will build the flight plan and export them to all the different formats as well. It comes in really handy when you can export a plan in the FMC format of your choice. Take a look at it here:http://www.fsbuild.com/Welcome to Avsim!Best Regards,Jeff
November 20, 200817 yr I second what most people are saying about FSBuild. What I usually do, is pick a real transatlantic flight on Flightaware (you can usually get a hold of a full westbound flightplan and all eastbound flightplans are almost always available) and then just plug it into FSBuild, build, export and away I go :) Cheers, Mack i7 950 @ 4Ghz :Apogee XT waterblock: EVGA X58 Classified :EK full-cover waterblock: Feser X-Changer 360: 3 x GTX 570 (Tri-SLI): EK full-cover waterblocks : Thermochill PA 120.2: 6GB Corsair Dominator 1600Mhz RAM (stock speeds) : FS9 & FSX @ 1920x1080 on Windows 7 x64
November 21, 200817 yr Another site I like to check (when Flightaware does not cover the route I want to fly... which happens almost always):http://www.vataware.com/Best regards from ColombiaLuis Miguel Best regards,Luis Hernández Main rig: self built, AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D (with SMT off and CO -50 mV), 2x16 GB DDR4-3200 RAM, Nvidia RTX 5060Ti 16GB, 256 GB M.2 SSD (OS+apps) + 2x1 TB SATA III SSD (sims) + 1 TB 7200 rpm HDD (storage), ID-Cooling SE-224-XTS air cooler, Viewsonic VX2458-MHD 1920x1080@120-144 Hz (G-sync compatible), Windows 11.

November 22, 200817 yr My thanks for all the suggestions! I'm using a combination of FlightAware and vataware with FsRoute and after I got used to it I really like it. Now I'm planning some real interesting "flights".Thanks again everyone!
November 22, 200817 yr One thing you might find interesting with FSBuild and online flying is that it will show you what sectors are active in VATSIM. When you build your plan, you'll know who is on and can plan a flight in areas that are controlled.Regards,Jeff
