I am confused about how to make a flight plan on this site.

Hi Andrew,

 

Please clarify one thing for me: Are you looking for help in creating a flight plan, or are you looking for help in submitting a ready-made flight plan into the network?

I am just having trouble making a flight plan with those boxes on the vatsim website. I am not sure how to use this site. I have FSX but I am not sure how to connect them.

Hi Andrew,

 

In that case, then I won't be able to answer. Because this is a more pilot-specific questions, we will have to wait for another helpful user to come along with an answer!

easiest way to go about it would be to use either simroutes.com or vroute.net, search for a route between your departure and arrival airport. use the download option to load it into FSX and copy and paste the info into the propper box here on the website. Filing the Flight plan on the vatsim page isn't required. to make things really simple file the plan thru your pilot client.

Andrew,

 

First of all, as this is a simulation of the real world of aviation, how much do you know of flying and creating VFR and IFR flight plans. In essence to answer your question well in the VATSIM world, I need to know where you are at in the real world of aviation and Air Traffic Control. Are you having issues in the aviation part of the flight plan (as knowing what to enter into the boxes) or connecting to the server and sending the flight plan to the controller?

 

Waiting your response,
