Hubert, if you go to your 'addon's at the top of the screen while with the aircraft, select 'PMDG' you will see a 'Load - Save' option. Just click on whatever one you need. :)

<br /><br /><br />But so you save the panel state and not the flight plan alone. To save the flight plan without the panel state you have to use one of the FMC pages. Best regards John

A search would do the trick...You can find the section of your interest on page 28 of the delivered PMDG MD-11 FMS Manual. I guess you cannot alter a specific F-PLN that has been added to your database already, using the REF-page of the MCDU; but I might be wrong and therefore will give a short testing period a try by myself.best regards,toby
