Coordinates conversion utility request

Featured Replies

Guys, could somebody savvy in arithmetics come up with a conversin utility from Google maps coordinates to MFS2020 flt and pln formats? There are too many places I'd like to fly over in MFS2020, but editing the files every time is just too much and those word not allowed minutes and seconds are soo tiny that it hurts my eyes. Please. ))

Thank you.

According to this link there's no need for a conversion (?) I can't check, I don't have MSF yet. Or maybe this was not what you're after?

Google maps have the capability to show latitude and longitude in decimal format. Got to tools > options > show lat/lon and select your preference.

I've been at this all evening. I'm able to paste the coordinates into the flight planner, but the custom mark has an altitude of 0 feet. Is this a problem? Can I set an altitude? How can I set this as my departure if the altitude is below ground level? Anyone have experience with this?

Thanks
