"FSNavigator and ATC"
Posted by WScofield on 02-17-02 at 22:27z
I've started using FSNavigator for flight planning, rather than the built-in MS program. I like it a lot. But I would like to get it to work with the ATC module - which means, I think, that I need to file an IFR flight plan. This is easy with the MS planner, but I haven't found a way to do it with FSNavigator.

Could one of the gurus who has been using FSNavigator with FS2K2 please point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

William

William -

If you're using FSNav 4.5 you can just create the flightplan and export it in the FS2002 format. Then load it with the FS2002 flightplanner and ATC will follow it.

HTH,

Vic

Sounds like an answer. I'll give it a whirl. I did try to find the answer in the "help" documentation, but got did not find it. So I hoped this forum would come through - which it did!

Thanks.

It will to a fashion :-) I can never get it to follow a flight plan 100% :-)

Yes, that IS frustrating. File an IFR flight plan and have ATC clear you for a visual approach. BUT it's a whole lot better than what it used to be! :)

True, it's neat but, still has a fault or two in it (technically not a bug) :-)
