I thought you meant Chair 😂

No, that would be PEBCAC (according to Google) 😉

It seems that the FMC only loads the last SimBrief generated plan, you cannot choose between other plans, as is can be done at the B737 NG

Firstly, you can always retrieve a previous FP in Simbrief and modify it according to the latest weather forecast. Secondly, there is little comparison between a long haul flight of 8 to 12 hours and a 2 to 4 hour flight, whereas you can easily reuse a previous short/medium haul flight plan, the same is not necessarily true for a long haul since the weather will have a far more important impact on your choice of route on a specific day. So to answer your query, that absence of feature on the B748 FMC is a blessing in disguise, you have only a limited number of ways to fly from KORD to KJFK (hence few FP), but a lot more from ZBAA to EDDF.

So Simbrief is now the only option, and it is not anymore possible to use the MSFS map flight planning facility at the 747 as with other default aircraft  ?.-
