Andreas Fuchs Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Hi Daniel, can you please explain? You want to load X-Plane .FMS-files into swift for what purpose? For the ATC flightplan?

Daniel Mckee Posted August 9, 2019 Author Share Posted August 9, 2019 I want to open a .fms saved plan and load it in Swift so I can then send plan to ATC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Fuchs Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Ok...all you need to do is copy-paste the routing, there's not much more to be read and loaded into a flightplan than maybe the level and planned true airspeed/mach number. But you can still make the suggestion, sure. If it is not too much work, the team will probably implement it.

Daniel Mckee Posted August 10, 2019 Author Share Posted August 10, 2019 Thanks mate. So if I understand the answer is No, one cannot modify a .fms to a .json. So we have to manually type in the departure and destination airports and all the other flight details into Swift and then copy/paste the route. Maybe at next update perhaps this issue could be looked at as to my knowledge (which I admit is sp[Mod - Happy Thoughts] on the subject) there are not many flightplan programmes using .json. Anyway thankyou for your guidance. Cheers Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Fuchs Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 I have already forwarded your request to the team. Have you joined our Discord server? The developers are very active there.
