SimRoutes down, how do I...

How do I turn a FlightAware route into a PLN file without using SimRoutes? I have no other applications or programs. SimRoutes was my only converter. To be clear, I do not need SimRoutes to find flightplans, I use FlightAware for that. It's the task of turning a route into a PLN file for FS that is the problem. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Miguel Frias' tool usually does the trick for me.

Tried it, but can't open the Flightplan once in FS9. Everything shows blank.

Looks like SimRoutes is back up.

There was a slight UNIX/Windows issue which is now solved. You might want to try now. If it doesn't work, let me know what flight plan you're using (basically origin, destination and route).

That's a really neat tool, Miguel!

 

Any chance you can include export for: iFly 737 & LDS 767?

 

I've been looking all over the place how to create/download .FLTPLAN for the 737.

For iFly I have to learn its format, see if it's doable.

 

For Level D, I have it done for my airline but forgot to set that up for FSMine... doing that now.
