Has anybody observed that you cannot go say to flightaware.com, highlight and copy the route and then paste it into PFPX when you want to overwrite the auto generated plan? It must be manually entered. Wonder why copy/paste does not work?

Bummer.  I only use Flightaware routes, at least for U.S. flights, and was hoping PFPX had the functionality to allow me to copy and paste.   Lets hope a copy paste feature is added!

I copy and paste all the time. Works perfectly, after reading this thread I have tested on my company routes with both mouse copy / paste and CTRL+C / CTRL+V and then "Build route".

Are you all pasting it in the route section where you plan a non-scheduled flight manually? That's were it was not working for me.

For correct weather predictions in PFPX with AS2012 I imagine you have to open the latter first, let it download the weather, then open PFPX and build your flight plan. Is that right?

 

Also, should I use the FMC computed step climbs or override them with the step climbs calculated in the PFPX flight plan?

 

Many thanks!!

That's right...only way to get the latest weather via ActiveSky.

It seems PayPal is having some issues and sent it as an echeck, which means 3-5 business days. I don't know why it happened.

Depends on the accuracy of your FMC (i.e. the plane you are using) vs the accuracy of PFPX. In addition I'd expect PFPX to take account of various airspace rules that your FMC probably doesn't know about (e.g. in Italy and France even/odd flight levels are driven by north/south rather than by east/west).

Hello!

 

I'm starting with PFPX since yesterday ...

 

I have questions for you!

 

Whe i create a flight, i need to compute it, to let PFPX calculate the Fuel needed, but then, i need to re-plan it, when i know what are the TOW and LW, that i need to enter in the Takeoff and Landing calculation in the Topcat function. So i need to compute, see the TOW and LW, and come back, enter it in the Takeoff and Landing options and then compute the flight another time. Is this way correct?

 

Or i need to open TOPCAT program alone? It doesn't work with REX wx.

 

And another, whe i calculate the Takeoff and Landing performance, in the OFP apperas only the Flaps config and Thrust, but not V1, Vr, V2 etc ... Why?

Ok, i see the option to snd the data to TOPCAT software and open it to compute TO and LNDG data ... But it is available before to compute the FLight and know what are my weights?
