November 14, 20214 yr I see the option to invert a flight plan is there in the NXi if I am on the MFD flight plan screen, and click the Menu key. But I cannot determine how load a previously saved flight plan back into MSFS -and- stay positioned at what was previously a destination airport from where I could fly an inverted plan. Here is an example: Yesterday completed a flight from KHXD, Hilton Head, SC, to MYNN, Nassau, Bahamas. I saved that flight plan from the MSFS Flight Planning screen before that flight. Today I want to reverse that trip and fly back to Hilton Head from Nassau. So I select Nassau as my From/Departure. But when I load the saved flight plan in MSFS, MSFS immediately repositions me back at Hilton Head. It gives me no choice. So I cannot find a way to be at Nassau with the previous Hilton Head → Nassau flight plan loaded in the NXi. This is not an NXi issue. If I am sitting at Hilton Head and load the same Hilton Head → Nassau flight plan, I can invert it in the NXi just fine. The inverted flight plan is now to fly me from Nassau to Hilton Head, but amusingly, MSFS has decisively positioned me at Hilton Head. Not where I am trying to start from. So it is instead a function of how MSFS is acting when a saved flight plan is loaded. Anyone know a way around this?

November 15, 20214 yr Author Certainly I can do that, but the remaining question is this. The feature itself is working in the NXi, and I would like to use it. But I cannot find how in MSFS at this point? Inverting a flight plan in Garmin aviation GPS models is a great and useful feature. Inverting an MSFS flight plan from a flight plan destination back to the airport you are currently sitting at makes little sense. So I expect I am missing a step somewhere in MSFS. Otherwise I would expect WT would likely not yet have implemented the feature. I am still looking. It is a challenge! 😧 Edited November 15, 20214 yr by fppilot Frank Patton Corsair 5000D Airflow Case; MSI B650 Tomahawk MOB; Ryzen 7 7800 X3D CPU; ASUS RTX 4080 Super; NZXT 360mm liquid cooler; Corsair Vengeance 64GB DDR5 4800 MHz RAM; RMX850X Gold PSU;; ASUS VG289 4K 27" Display; Honeycomb Alpha & Bravo, Crosswind 3's w/dampener.

It all seems to be in that vein..
