Fsbuild or Vroute?

Featured Replies

Im looking for a good route planner where i can create or look for routes. I used fsnavigator before(fs9) as well as Vroute but now fsnav is not available for fsx. I want to see what you guys have to say about these two. Thanks in advance. Sent from my SGH-I727R using Tapatalk

I have Vroute premium. Vroute can be used to obtain submitted/used routes routes from users but it will not "build" new routes for you, least that I am aware of. FSBuild will physically build a route for you. I use FSCommander as I like running a moving map on a networked computer. It also has a flight planner/creator in it with procedures included. There are otheres out there also. Gplan, EFB etc.

FS Build. I usually build my own flight plans. The tutorials on their website explain how pretty clearly. It's pretty fun, actually.

FSBuild too. It can automatically generate a flight plan alone with SID/STAR based on shortest distance. Also it calculates fuel for you. Due to various wind speed at high altitude( especially jet stream), FSBuild is highly accurate. I haven't flown without it since I installed it.

Does it calculate fuel for various aircraft? I have leveld 767, ngx, pmdg jetstream 41, carenado malibu caravan and baron, citation x, and embraer Ejets from wilco. I think ill go with Fsbuild then Sent from my SGH-I727R using Tapatalk
