MSFS loaded flight plan routes to North Pole

Featured Replies

Issue has came back with the latest update. Everything is updated to the latest.

If I upload the .pln file through Navigraph though it works fine. LittleNavMap has the lastest data, but sends it to the north pole.

I would use Navigraph charts in the mean time, but I cannot start in a parking spot using this plan, and when I change it to a parking spot in game, it changes the plan as well in game, bringing me to waypoints I don't want to go to, and I am unable to delete them.

Can you post the working Navigraph PLN file? Maybe I can find something what MSFS does not like.

I hope this helps. Would you like a screen shot of LNM as well?

I loaded the .pln file from LNM, then saved the flight plan in msfs. This is the save from MSFS.

Update. If I try to load the flight plan made by MSFS not LNM, it crashes the game.

Took a bit longer ... 🙃

Just tried the export of the LNMPLN above and see the issue where a few waypoints are moved north. This happens even when removing all user waypoints. So these are not the issue.

Then I moved the Navigraph navdata update out of the folder "Community" and the flight plan is loading without issues now. Maybe contact Navigraph about this? Although, I'm sure they are also fighting with MSFS bugs.

The re-exported PLN from MSFS is broken beyond all recognition. One only has to look at the coordinates to see that they are way off.
