FS X Flight Plans

Post by Michael Natale »

Is there any way to upload and share flight plans through the web site? Just wondering. I'm new and I have been saving my routes (including SID/STARS) for frequently flown legs. They are from the A/F D and I would love to share them if anyone is interested. It would save time when loading your flight plan if your are into flying your legs like you would on a real IFR flight plan.. Just a thought......

Because flight plans can be fluid with the occasional changes to airspace fixes, airways, SIDs and STARs I don't normally store my flight plans. Anytime I want to look up a standard routing I just go to http://www.flightaware.com and put in the flight # or city pair and I can get whatever flight plan is being filed in the real world flight.

Thanks Norbeto. I just checked the site out and it is pretty good. My problem has always been editing the MSFS planner, not finding the routes. It's a pain dragging your route line to selected point isn't it? I was hoping to file share the FS X .pln forms. This is good to know also. I am doing all short legs now anyway as a trainee. Routes aren't going to vary too much here.
