Good morning, I'm wondering how Radar Contact, and FSX in general, will work with oceanic flights. I haven't been able to try any in FSX yet, as the last time I was on was over a month ago, but how will LAT/LON work in FSX? Here's my example flight plan, as taken from Flightaware, and then put into the .pln format by www.simroutes.com ;[flightplan]title=KMEM to LFPGdescription=KMEM, LFPGtype = IFRroutetype = 3cruising_altitude=31000departure_id=KMEM, N35* 02.55', W89* 58.60', +000341.00destination_id=LFPG, N49* 00.77', E2* 33.00', +000387.00departure_name=Memphis_Intldestination_name=Charles_De_Gaullewaypoint.0=KMEM, A, N35* 02.54', W089* 58.60', +000000.00, waypoint.1=VISQA, I, N36* 17.42', W089* 02.11', +000000.00, waypoint.2=TINGS, I, N37* 18.18', W088* 15.37', +000000.00, J29waypoint.3=PXV, V, N37* 55.70', W087* 45.74', +000000.00, J29waypoint.4=IMPEL, I, N38* 21.57', W087* 04.98', +000000.00, J29waypoint.5=JUDDI, I, N38* 45.56', W086* 26.41', +000000.00, J29waypoint.6=KURTZ, I, N38* 58.33', W086* 05.56', +000000.00, J29waypoint.7=BIGXX, I, N39* 19.86', W085* 29.85', +000000.00, J29waypoint.8=FYLLS, I, N39* 54.41', W084* 37.83', +000000.00, J29waypoint.9=ROD, V, N40* 17.27', W084* 02.59', +000000.00, J29waypoint.10=PROTN, I, N40* 32.43', W083* 36.55', +000000.00, J29waypoint.11=DUTSH, I, N41* 08.44', W082* 33.21', +000000.00, J29waypoint.12=DJB, V, N41* 21.48', W082* 09.72', +000000.00, J29waypoint.13=DORET, I, N41* 48.10', W080* 35.08', +000000.00, J29waypoint.14=JHW, V, N42* 11.32', W079* 07.28', +000000.00, J29waypoint.15=WAAKE, I, N42* 20.53', W078* 40.85', +000000.00, J29waypoint.16=KELIE, I, N42* 39.62', W077* 44.68', +000000.00, J29waypoint.17=JOSSY, I, N42* 53.50', W077* 02.61', +000000.00, J29waypoint.18=SYR, V, N43* 09.63', W076* 12.27', +000000.00, J29waypoint.19=TUPER, I, N44* 11.77', W074* 24.61', +000000.00, J29waypoint.20=LAGGS, I, N44* 17.83', W074* 13.74', +000000.00, J29waypoint.21=PLB, V, N44* 41.10', W073* 31.36', +000000.00, J29waypoint.22=VLV, V, N45* 55.50', W070* 50.75', +000000.00, waypoint.23=PQI, V, N46* 46.45', W068* 05.67', +000000.00, waypoint.24=MIILS, I, N46* 52.42', W067* 02.90', +000000.00, waypoint.25=VIXUN, I, N48* 08.27', W053* 36.78', +000000.00, waypoint.26=LOGSU, I, N48* 46.60', W051* 00.00', +000000.00, waypoint.27=4900N 05000W, I, N49* 00.00', W050* 00.00', +000000.00, waypoint.28=5100N 04000W, I, N51* 00.00', W040* 00.00', +000000.00, waypoint.29=5300N 03000W, I, N53* 00.00', W030* 00.00', +000000.00, waypoint.30=5400N 02000W, I, N54* 00.00', W020* 00.00', +000000.00, waypoint.31=DOGAL, I, N54* 00.00', W015* 00.00', +000000.00, waypoint.32=BEXET, I, N54* 00.00', W014* 00.00', +000000.00, waypoint.33=BAKUR, I, N52* 14.50', W005* 40.82', +000000.00, waypoint.34=STU, V, N51* 59.68', W005* 02.42', +000000.00, waypoint.35=DIKAS, I, N51* 46.62', W003* 15.55', +000000.00, UL9waypoint.36=BASET, I, N51* 33.83', W001* 42.60', +000000.00, UL9waypoint.37=INLAK, I, N51* 28.68', W001* 31.45', +000000.00, UL18waypoint.38=NIGIT, I, N51* 18.78', W001* 10.25', +000000.00, UL18waypoint.39=VAPID, I, N51* 15.23', W001* 02.70', +000000.00, UL18waypoint.40=MID, V, N51* 03.23', W000* 37.50', +000000.00, UL18waypoint.41=SFD, V, N50* 45.63', E000* 07.32', +000000.00, UL18waypoint.42=WAFFU, I, N50* 34.95', E000* 20.98', +000000.00, UM605waypoint.43=HARDY, I, N50* 28.27', E000* 29.47', +000000.00, UM605waypoint.44=XIDIL, I, N50* 21.10', E000* 38.48', +000000.00, UM605waypoint.45=PETAX, I, N50* 11.20', E000* 50.88', +000000.00, UM605waypoint.46=DPE, V, N49* 55.52', E001* 10.24', +000000.00, UM605waypoint.47=LFPG, A, N49* 00.77', E002* 33.00', +000000.00, Would this work with FSX, and Radar Contact? I, unfortunately, will not be on FSX 'til May, and thus cannot test this flight plan format. Thanks,
