Help for flight planning

Featured Replies

G'day to all. I must be doing something wrong. I am using FSX and I would like to make a flight plan with multiple stops and all I seem able to do is go from A to B. I would like to be able to go from A to B via X and Y without having to make seperate flight plans for each leg. Is that possible with the FSX Flight Planner. All help appreciated. Thanks. May life smile, Fritz

Many of us would love to be able to this! Unfortunately, FS flight planning doesn't allow it. Separate legs is what we must do.

Yes it is possible, although ATC might not necessarily recognise it in the way you want. Here's an example of how you can do it:Say I want to fly from Manchester to London, but stop at several airports on the way. I can create a flight plan with the FSX flight planner direct from Manchester to London, and then edit it, by dragging the route line onto other airports, by clicking and grabbing the line and dragging it over an airport on the map, like this:flightplan.jpgYou can see the black line is where I am dragging the red line over to EGBE, to add it to the route (the mouse pointer doesn't show up on the screenshot BTW). I could have dragged it onto VORs and NDBs etc too if I had wanted to, but notice that I have decluttered the map of everything except airport, to make things a bit easier. Doing that sort of thing will give me this in the GPS:flightplan1.jpgThere are other ways to do it too, but that's probably the simplest method.Al
