Fsbuild-2 Flight Planner

Hi Ernie,

You made the point in your reply to the previous topic that FSBuild will export a flightplan in the native ISG .rte format.

I agree that it does, but when I load an FSBuild .rte flightplan exported this way in the SMITHS FMS, the entire route on the RTE page shows as "Direct" legs. In other words, instead of just showing last waypoint on each airway on the RTE page, every intermediate waypoint along the airway is shown as a direct leg and no airways are shown on the left. Have I explained that properly, and is there something I am doing wrong?

If I want the Route to be: Departure fix then via UAxxx to WWWWW, then via UBxxx to XXXXX, then via ULxxx to YYYYY then Arrival fix, I have to enter it manually in the SMITHS and save it. I can then see all the intermediate waypoints in the LEGS page as expected.

Apologies if I have posted this in the wrong forum.

Thanks Ernie.

It all adds to the "as real as it gets" pre-flight planning.
