FSX SE Flight Plan unknown characters

Featured Replies

Hi fellow enthusiasts!

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere but I could not find it searching the forums.

Having an annoying issue with FSX SE Flight Planner not saving flight plans correctly. When comparing with a downloaded flight plan, I notice the degree symbol (°) in the downloaded flight plan is a question mark symbol (�) in the FSX SE generated flight plan.

Both headers have UTF-8 as encoding and I have switched my windows 10 language pack to English (USA) but still nothing works.

The result is when loading a previously saved flight plan, all waypoints/airports are at LAT 0 LONG 0. The only way to resume my flight is to re-create the flight plan every time.

Regards,

Silco.

 

I don't use fsx flight planner anymore.

I use Simple pln maker:

This amazing freeware lets you create fsx plans by simply entering the waypoint names and even RNAV waypoints. Adding SIDS and STARS is a piece of cake for this software. You just have the charts and enter the RNAV waypoint names in it... Then choose your Cruise altitude and simply extract the .pln file...
