Hi guys, I'm new to the pmdg scene having just aquired the model and fs2crew (excellent combo, very happy)

 

So I guess i'm just being dumb or have not found what i am looking for in the manuals (WOW!!! lots of pages!!!)

 

I was wondering how to load a flight plan into the FMC...... I can't find it :-)

 

Would appreciate help

 

Thanks

And RouteFinder

Why don't you bring this up in the NGX forum, read the the Introduction, do Tutorial1 and 2, and sign your full name to your posts.

My apologies, being new, I didn't realise there was an NGX forum, I have read the intro and flown tutorial 1 and 2, but could not find what i was looking for, and I didn't realise that my name was a requirement

What are you looking for? Maybe I or someone else can help you.

What type of fligt plan do you want to load? One from FSX itself or one from an external source (VA, vRoute, routefinder etc)?

Hi there Colin,

 

On the FMC hit the RTE button to get to the route page. You can visually confirm that you're on the correct page by checking that the top centre says RTE and the left top displays ORIGIN and right top DEST. If you have any preconfigured flightplans in your PMDG NGX flightplans folder, then calling up CO ROUTE will allow you to load such a flightplan. You may also setup a flightplan in the RTE page, as listed in the tutorials, and once the flightplan is setup, you should see the word SAVE on the RTE screen. This allows you to save the flightplan you've programmed here and enables you to load it through CO ROUTE when you're in the NGX anytime in the future.

 

Any other questions fire away, there are lots of very helpful people here on the PMDG forums :smile:

I used to be like you [until i took an arrow to the knee], with the QW757, but, with the NGX i learned to just neter it all manually. It takes a little time, but i find it more achieving and real-world like

 

Give it a go!
