That is what I have used for a couple of years and it does everything, all over the world. I wouldn't fly without it. 

 

 

 

May try Plan-G, it works with MSFS now Version 4, and it's FREE..

I stopped using LNM because you can't enter airways.  For me it's too much work to manually enter all the waypoints individually.  Has this changed?

When did you last use it? I've used it for years and been able to enter airways....

Thanks again for these new replies.

And thanks for reminding me about Plan G which I used in the past and looking at the website (Plan G)  It is compatible with MSFS. I will have a look but LNM sure is powerful but a little daunting with so many 'icons' at the top (but practice makes perfect as they say).

 

Also a tutorial using it with MSFS   Plan-G tutorial  although NO one speaking - gee I hate tutorials with no vocals

[added later] Not sure if I even want to 'test run' Plan-G as when I did run the .exe I was advised that it was attempting to change something in my protected documents folder and that worried me. I chose 'do not change'.

From your post I'm assuming you have a route, in which case go:

 

Flightplan / New Flightplan from Route Description

 

You can either type it in manually or paste a text route from Simbrief / Navigraph Charts / etc will decipher directs, airways & procedures....

I'm not at my PC at the moment but if I'm not mistaken you simply right click the airway you want in Littlenavmap and from there you can add it.

The autoroute function can also be used to create routes automatically that favour either airways or navaids.

What also 'makes perfect' is an extremely configurable interface and LNM sure has that! You can disable every part of that top so it only shows what you really need, which is a LOT less than you see by default! You can also remove a lot of the screens you see by default. LNM is one of the most configurable add ons out there. It's almost a shame the default settings show everything instead of the basics most might use. I just have a few icons at the top and 3 screens underneath it: looks very relaxed, not daunting and everything is still very easy to use.

LNM pust a lot of payware to shame. It's incredible it is free...!

Maybe I just can't see the forest for the trees.  I'm creating a flight plan from KSAC to KSLC I want my first leg to be from COLOM to BAM along the J32. I right click COLOM and add it to the flight plan. Now how do I get to BAM on the J32?

Thanks. Is there anything that this free tool doesn't do or have?😀   Wonderful and (as you mention) FREE.

I had a quick look at Plan-G as it states it is for VFR which I am currently favoring but details displayed on the map are not easy at all on my aging eyes.

Add the entry point (COLOM) and exit point (BAM) to the flightplan.  Then highlight both points on the flight plan tab and right click.  Choose 'calculate flight plan for selected range'.

Since this is a jet route enter a minimum of 18000 for altitude and click adjust.  Select jet airways then calculate.

It will populate all waypoints between  COLOM & BAM along J32.

Thank you Nathan. This does work.
