Plan-G / Re: No correct route in Flight Plan
September 07, 2009, 08:17:33 PM
If you have FSX running before you open Plan-G, you can make a flight plan and save it. It will show on Plan-G, but not on the GPS.

You have to restart your flight and load the plan before you fly. The flight plan will then show in Plan-G and the GPS. 

At least, that is what I found when I tried it. I think it is best to make the flight plan and save it before loading FSX.

I've had a look in the Log file Tim. Most of it relates to the installation of 362. I can't see anywhere that Nottingham to Carlisle was loaded.

I flew Biggin Hill to Fairoaks on FP that I created with Plan-G. That all shows.

As I said, it's not a problem. I just wondered how it had happened.

The FP that appeared, was one that I loaded yesterday for the VFR Flyers flight. It showed on the GPS, but but not in Plan-G. A problem that 362 rectified.

I didn't download 362 until this morning, then when I started it the FP was on display. I certainly didn't load it after installing 362.

I haven't actually flown with 362, but when I ran it and clicked on the Globe, yesterdays FP showed up as a Previous Flight.

By the way. Where do I find the log?

I uninstalled the previous version by deleting the folder, then installed build 362. I then built the database for FSX when requested.

When I ran Plan-G, I found that all my previous settings and preferences were still in place. Also, a flight plan that wouldn't load previously was now showing, although I hadn't loaded it.

How, if I had deleted the earlier Plan-G, did the new version know what my settings and preferences were? Something must have been left in place after it had supposedly been deleted.

These are not "problems" as such, but points to ponder.

Thanks Tim for this great programme.
