July 16, 201114 yr I dont think you can save a flightplan in the 744, Was one of the things I tried but remember hearing it was supposed to be part of an update or something. Brent Lewis
July 16, 201114 yr Moderator Yes, you can save a company route in the 744 FMC. I forget how, but its been posted in the 747 section of the PMDG area which can be found with a search, as well, its probably in the 747 operating manual. I'll see if I can find the directions for you and post it. It's been a while since I did it and its not fresh in my mind.SeaN CampbellHere's the link with some pics showing how its done.http://forum.avsim.net/topic/294198-saving-fmc-data/page__p__1818294__hl__save+company+route__fromsearch__1#entry1818294Sean Campbell Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
July 16, 201114 yr One question about saving and loading routes in the 747:Is it possible to load routes saved with Flightsim Commander with the 747?FSC itself says that the routes get saved in PMDG format, but untill now no aircraft exept for the MD11 can load it. Am I doing something wrong? How do you guys do it? Greetings from the 737 flightdeck!

Am I doing something wrong? How do you guys do it?Sure! That's how I generate flightplans for the 744. Are you saving them to the PMDG flightplans folder?

I save them to the default location where it saves PMDG flight plans. But for the MD11 it works propably, so it should be alright, right? Greetings from the 737 flightdeck!

I only asked that to differentiate from the default FSX folder.One thing I have noticed is that it doesn't remember the location. When saving a plan for the 744 I have to navigate to the PMDG folder each time. Kenneth Weir My Saitek yoke mod i7 2600k @ 4.7 8GB Gskill CAS7 2x GTX580 SLI Surround + GT520 Accessory Win7x64

When saving a plan for the 744 I have to navigate to the PMDG folder each time.So the default location for a flightplan (even though it is in PMDG format) is not the correct folder where the 747 reads it flightplans from?Is the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\PMDG\FLIGHTPLANS the correct one?
