Fyi-PlanG and Xplane-great way to explore

Recommended Posts

I'm a moron! I had some time this morning to mess with it. I got locked into File > Options > Locations and forgot to go to File > Options > FS Connection and change it to FSUIPC. Works fine now.Do the plans I created for FSX work in X-Plane?, I suspect not but thought I would ask.

X-Plane doesn't have a flight planner in the same way that FS does, so it's not quote so simple. You can fly the plane with reference to the plan in PG ( just as if you were using a hand held GPS RW), but the autopilot won't follow the plan unless you manually re-enter it into whatever GPS is fitted. X-Plane does have an "fms" file which v3 will support. But it's limited somewhat to whatever planes have an appropriate fmc fitted (mostly heavies and whatever addons have been so coded, I suspect). My experience of X-Plane is still rather limited, and I'm still fumbling my way around...
