Sorry if this has been asked before...

Have a bunch of old ".FLT" flight plans that
I'd like to use in P3D4...

I have looked on the web without success...

Any help much appreciated...

Thanks, John H

Once I am flying a flight plan, PG starts a
"red line" marking where I'm actually
flying....if I start the flight over (same
flight plan) the red line remains...
how do you erase the red line?...thanks

Hello there...try this...export the plan to
FSX and load it...on the first page that comes up
there are two "tabs" in the upper left of the plan page..
one says "create" and the other say "edit"...the default tab
that is functional is the "create," which assumes that
you want to create yet a new plan with the beginning and ending
airports in your original plan...when you click on the navlog or
create route (I forget exactly the name). all it shows
is the direct route between the two airports...if you
first click on the "edit" page when the plan first loads
you should see your flight plan and all the way points...
hope this helps..

Plan-G / Update Install Questions
May 21, 2013, 01:05:42 PM
Couple of questions about installing updates
when one already has Ver. 3 installed:

1) Do you need to uninstall the older
version prior to updating?; and,

2) Is it necessary to update the database?
..is it overwritten in the install process?

Thanks,

I have solved my own problem...OPERATOR ERROR...
stems from the fact that I did not fully understand the workings
of the Flight Planner in P3D.....now that I do...I see that the
Plan-G imported files work great and have all the original
way points...I was not looking at the "edit" tab when the flight plan
was loaded....thanks for all the help...

Newbie here..apologize if this question
answered many times..tried to search.....
using current version of PG3 on P3D...
seems to work fine...however, when I
export a flight plan to FSX format and
view in P3D Flight Planner, it
loses all way-points....any help appreciated..
thanks, JMH
