Robert Vanderkam Posted December 16, 2020 at 02:59 PM Posted December 16, 2020 at 02:59 PM I'm just trying to get vPilot set up for FS2020 and I'm having trouble getting connected. It says it needs a flight plan "loaded" before it will connect me to the sim, but I read that I cannot load a flight plan until I'm connected. I seem to be stuck.

Matthew Bartels Posted December 16, 2020 at 03:23 PM Posted December 16, 2020 at 03:23 PM I think you may be confusing flight plan with flight. Make sure that the simulator is fully loaded and you are at the gate before you connect. Not at any of the menus. 1 You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

Paul Moxhay Posted December 16, 2020 at 07:04 PM Posted December 16, 2020 at 07:04 PM It says you have to have a "flight" loaded... that is a little misleading as you don't really "load" a flight into the flight sim. What it means is that you have started the flight and are at the gate. Just a small reminder... once you have connected, don't forget to take a peek outside the aircraft to make sure you haven't spawned on top of another aircraft already at the gate. If you have, just disconnect and move to another gate either by slew or relocate via the sim menu to start a new flight. Hope that helps 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Vanderkam Posted December 16, 2020 at 07:54 PM Author Posted December 16, 2020 at 07:54 PM Thanks both of you. And yes, I'm an old hand at VATSIM from FSX days but not since 2012 or so and using squawkbox I think.
