g5flyer 6 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Since upgrading to 1.16, I can't open the IFR flight plan in FSX anymore. It will only load as VFR. Is there a fix for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosnowboarder_777 21 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I guess I'm screwed as I already deleted v1.15 and have no way to revert back to the previous version. Hopefully they fix this soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regis902 6 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I have this same issue but oddly once airborne I can open an IFR flightplan, it's only on the ground I cannot do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chusair 2 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I have exactly the same problem, what can I do? I would like to open as IFR and not as VFR please respond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chusair 2 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I am not sure where to get the previous version any longer...I hope someone from PFPX responsibly answer this concern because I basically spend my money in a peace of junk and I honestly don't like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasmalai 0 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Same problem over here. I experience the same. Hope we get a FIX soon. Alex, LSZH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honanhal 6 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Same problem here. Hotfix urgently needed. I don't have a download of 1.15 to downgrade to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honanhal 6 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Ok, I think I've isolated the issue by comparing pre-1.16 .pln files with post-ones. First waypoint is your departure airport. In the old .pln files it looked like this: <ATCWaypoint id="VECC"> <ATCWaypointType>Airport</ATCWaypointType> <WorldPosition>N22° 39' 13.99",E088° 26' 48.01",+000023.00</WorldPosition> <ICAO> <ICAOIdent>VECC</ICAOIdent> </ICAO> </ATCWaypoint> In the new ones like this: <ATCWaypoint id="VECC"> <ATCWaypointType>Airport</ATCWaypointType> <WorldPosition>N22° 39' 13.99",E088° 26' 48.01",+000023.00</WorldPosition> <ICAO> <ICAORegion>VE</ICAORegion> <ICAOIdent>VECC</ICAOIdent> </ICAO> </ATCWaypoint> I've highlighted the difference. Removing that ICAORegion line brought back the option to request IFR clearance on the ground. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasmalai 0 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Hi James Thank you for your inverstigation. Indeed, I tried to erase that <ICAORegion..............> to erase and YESS....it works again, i can request IFR clearance. So, no that we know what it is, i hope that the Aerosoft-Team will release very quick a FIX for this problem, then, its a bit fuzzy to correct each time we make a new flightplan with PFPX, this .pln file manually before flying..... Thank you James and thanks to the Aerosoft team in advance Alex, LSZH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sstrain 0 Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Is there any solution to this yet? I can see the extra ICAORegion fields in the FSX flightplan. Is there a configuration option to remove them? I'm back at 1.15 until there is a solution. Regards, Sandy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyxx 92 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Yep I have this also, same in p3D as in FSX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyxx 92 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Also you never get cleared to land also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sstrain 0 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Clearly this is a problem affecting many people with both FSX and P3D. Please can the developers comment on a solution. I don't mind if it's because I can't drive PFPX or a bug, but it would be nice to know. Regards Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyxx 92 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I would just like them to say " yes we know about it and working on it" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICEchr 0 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Solution is very easy: Edit your FSX flight plan and delete following: Delete the ICAO Region line at the Departure Airport (first ATC waypoint) and at the Arrival Airport (Last ATC Waypoint). Delete following: <ICAORegion>VE</ICAORegion> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sstrain 0 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 That's a workaround, but it's not a solution. If there is a way to stop PFPX inserting these lines for no reason or have an option to disable them for FSX if there is a reason, that would be good.

sstrain 0 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I opened a support ticket with Aerosoft, but was informed that I need to go direct to Flightsimsoft which I've now done. I recommend that anyone having a problem raises a ticket with support@flightsimsoft.com. It will give the developers an indication of how widespread the problem is.

ESzczesniak 25 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Anyone else find that the ICAO departure/destination isn't always filling in the information for the first waypoint? I was making a flight form DEN to SFO. The first waypoint had all the fields listed, but all were blank, when I selected 17R for departure (which was appropriate per winds). However, if I changed to 8 for departure, all the fields filled in correctly for DEN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
