May 19, 201313 yr I made frequent use of "The Queen's" Flight Plan collection and I would throughly enjoy using them in my 737 or, hopefully, in the new 777. Is that possible? Cliff Cliff Harris

Cliff Yes they use the same format, and directory, just enter it in the CoRoute field. in the Route page of the FMC Thanks Tom My Youtube Videos! http://www.youtube.com/user/tf51d
May 19, 201313 yr Author That's really interesting. Thanks. I lost The Queen after a Hard disk failure but knowing what you've just told me I'll install it again. When it's installed would I use it as the Company Route when using the FMC in the 737NXG? If i select it in the 747 folder will it automatically appear when I quote it's identity into the 737?

May 19, 201313 yr Both the 737NGX, 747, MD-11 and I'm sure the J41, use the same folder for flightplans. PMDG\FlightPlans in the root FSX folder. It's not aircraft specific. So yes, you would just enter it in the CoRoute field with either aircraft. Thanks Tom My Youtube Videos! http://www.youtube.com/user/tf51d
May 19, 201313 yr Author Thanks for the information. Interesting and useful. Regards.........Cliff Cliff Harris
May 20, 201313 yr It is not quite as simple as that. Yes they all use the same directories and so on, but the format has moved on a bit. Flight plans for older releases will work perfectly well in newer ones, but... if you use some of the newer features and save your plans, they might not work in the older releases any more.

Never had any problems with my flightplans, I use FSbuild to make mine!! Thanks Tom My Youtube Videos! http://www.youtube.com/user/tf51d

As I said, if you save a plan using a newer release, you might have problems using that plan in an older release. If you are only using FSBuild, or any other external tool, then this wont apply to you. Paul Smith.
