February 25, 20251 yr I tried to duplicate a flight done in 2020 this morning from KMSP>KDEN in the 787X but in 2024 KMSP a bunch of jetways and not much else was at that airport, despite a restart hoping that might populate the rest of the airport. I don't see the EFT in the 2024 plane being able to create and output the performance numbers as it does in 2020 and hopefully I'm missing something it would have been a first flight in something other than mainly the Longitude in 2024 so I ended up aborting. Is it possible to get those CALC numbers into the Takeoff page in the FMC as one could in 2020's 787X thru MSFS 2024's EFT perhaps?

I’m quite disappointed at the changes to FP ingestion including W&B in 2024. 2020 W&B was a simple and effective answer to a complex topic. 2024 EFB? Meh. Seems quite haphazard in design and execution but that is only my opinion. Others will have their own, as others always do, but for me? I’ll take the 2020 WT Plate and leave the 2024 version behind.

So it's just you manually import them into the FMC I guess is what you might be affirming instead of using the EFB's CALC and Send Output buttons, right? Where do you put fuel and pax in, in the MSFS EFB?

Where do you put fuel and pax in, in the MSFS EFB? In the settings menu in the FMC there is a place to input that info. I'd get a screenshot, but I'm in the middle of a flight in a different aircraft. Edited February 26, 20251 yr by Tuskin38

Thank you I was rushed at the time and noticed there was no import option in the FMC as there is for weight/pax/route so put them in manually and all seemed good.

February 26, 20251 yr yeah they removed simbrief import from the 747/787 because they want to leave that to third parties to add for whatever reason
