Hello all:I've read the forum threads regarding VORs needing to be the last waypoint. I use FSBuild to make plans based on RW flight plans found on Flight Aware. How would I go about changing the flight plan to have a VOR as the last waypoint? Also, PSS uses a CFXX point before the runway as the last point in the flight plan. This is created when you select the active from the FMC. How would you add a VOR with this? TIA

RC gets its data from your FS Build plan exported to FS9. It would not see "soft" waypoints or RNAV waypoints coming from the PSS data.What you might consider doing is not to make your Export Options in FSB sticky between sessions. What you can do is after your build is set up is to check PSS for your first export in the correct PSS format using build again.Now uncheck the export to PSS and check Export to FS2002/FS9. Edit the route grid table so the VOR is the last checkpoint before the airport by deleting grid rfows as necessary. Under the Build Options menu click to check Build from Route/Table waypoint grid. Then press Build again and the FS9/RC flight plan exported will only contain the table items from which your undesired waypoints have been eliminated. Now you should be able have a VOR as the last waypoint.Consider using a NOTAMS arrival so if you do use FMC navigation the RC ATC will be more flexible.
