Hi Elphy
I'm very new to Plan-G but I don't think it works in the same way as FSNavigator - i.e. you cannot hit F9 or any other key and have Plan-G come up over the MSFS interface.
When FS9 is running I hit ALT+ENTER to get the program into windowed mode and then I fire up Plan-G. Whenever I want to see Plan-G I just select it from the taskbar at the bottom of the screen and it comes up over FS9. You have to make sure that the Pause on Task Switch option in FS9 is unchecked if you want to keep flying while you are looking at Plan-G. The only downside of this for me is that I cannot hear the engine sounds whilst I am looking at Plan-G.
Plan-G allows you to build a flight plan and save it in FS9's native format which you can then import into FS9 in the usual way.
I assume that all this is the same in FSX but, as you can probably guess, I'm an FS9 flyer :)
Hope this helps.
David
