plan a flight in IFR

[lonesomepilot]

Hello,

please, can you explain me how i can configure the SID from the departure airport and the STAR for the arrival airport ?

I don't understand the explaination in the example of the user guide, which speak only of the arrival ...
I would like for example to plan the complete flight from LFPG (gateway 77 then runway 27R for example) to LIMF airport ...

Thank you for your help,

SIDs and STARS are not included in Plan-G. You would have to transfer them manually from the paper charts if you want to include them.

Hello Tim,

SIDs and STARS are not included in Plan-G. You would have to transfer them manually from the paper charts if you want to include them.

I didn't understand this. When I make a right-click on the destination airport in the map and choose "Show instrument approaches" I get a menu of STARS for choosing and adding into the flight plan...?!  ???  This is a great convenience and often used by me...what do you mean?

PMFJI Haddock -  you are not getting a list of STARS - you are getting a list of instrument approaches that are available in FSX - totally different from STARS. STAR get's you into the terminal area and THEN you use a specific approach per ATC.

In P-G, you need to KNOW the waypoints and procedure for the STAR - then you can manually input the waypoints in the plan. After that, you can use P-G to add the specific approach.

Suppose I have the chart of the way point of STAR, how do you manually enter that information in the plan
