April 18, 20188 yr Author Update: I signed up with simbrief, watched the video tutorials (really helpful btw), created a flight plan and downloaded the CRJ 700 flight plan. I inputed the flight plan to the correct flight plan folder under the CRJ folder which was fine. Now prior to using Simbrief I would just use the P3D default flight planner using VOR waypoints. So when I would ask for clearance ATC knows where I'm heading. Question is now , how do I get ATC in P3D to give me clearance using a flight plan in Simbrief? Anyone know where I'm going with this? I'm using default ATC which I've enjoyed using in the past.
April 18, 20188 yr Author Also, when I dispatch a flight plan in Simbrief, how do I delete it? I tried doing it yesterday but it couldn't remove at this time or some error like that.

Open your flight planner and import into the sim flight planner. Done Matt Wilson

You really should look into that downloader, it's way better than I initially thought You set up paths to your P3D folder and for whatever plane you use (there are many formats). From there, you will just go into the P3D flight planner and load it. Same for your aircraft FMC file. It automatically loads whichever format needed and places them in the correct folder (that you specify). Pretty cool actually. I used to have to download extra files and put them in the P3D, PMDG, and ProATX-X folders individually. Now it's more or less automatic... very convenient Brian Laird Too tall to fly for real, so I sim instead i7 6700K | EVGA GTX1070 (8GB VRAM) | 16 GB DDR4 RAM | Asus Z170-A MoBo | HTC Vive | Saitek x52 Pro, Multi-panel and instrument panels Prepar3d v4 | Have but don't fly: FSX, FSW, XP11, FS2 (retired now that P3DV4 is out)
