Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted April 9, 2017 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 9, 2017 As far as I know vPilot reads "Squawkbox 3" files which can be exported by PFPX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainMike 0 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Hi, see this and let me know if the links work for you. In PFPX export the file in SquawkBox format into your vPilot folder.In my case is : Documents>vPilot Please login to display this image. Please login to display this image. [/img]Run vPilot and go to FlightPlan tab.Open it.Click on Load and once the vPilot folder opens, look at the bottom right hand side.Next to the file name empty filed there is another tab which should state vPilot Flightplans.Click on this and select the option SquawkBox Flight Plans. Please login to display this image. Please login to display this image. [/img]Hope it works for your as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aua668 19 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Hi, You could also pre-file to VATSIM out of PFPX directly and in vPilot fetch the pre-filed flightplan when connected. Using that method you are also showing potential controllers earlier, that you plan to fly from/to a specific airport. The only weakness is, that with the latest hotfix of PFPX the alternate is in the remark field and you have to copy it in the pre-file form to the correct field. Hope this get fixed with the next hotfix. But no big issue. Rgds Reinhard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 @CaptainMike You only need select one Squawkbox option, as you have it setup in the image one export will get overwritten by the other. I would suggest using the SB3 or higher option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
