Run Plan-G on a computer where FSX is not running

[Chake]

Hi and Thanks for Plan-G! It's by far the best free Flight Planning Tool and much better than a lot of payware!

Therefore I want to use this tool for Flight Planning on a machine, where FSX is not running. Is there any possibility to establish the database anyway? Which files do I have to copy from the FSX-Installation or is there even a way to let Plan-G read the installation DVD's?

Greetings from Germany and thanx for your replies!

Yes. You have two options. One is to build the database over the network (may not work if you installed FSX to the default Program Files) See manual page 6 & 16

The second is to install Plan-G on both PCs. Build the database on the FS PC and then copy the Plan-G\Data folder across to the other one. This is probably the simpler option.

Hope that helps.

Option #2 works. Thanks for your quick answer!
