Professional Flight Planner X

Hallo zusammen, ich nutze den PFPX schon eine ganze Weile und stelle immer wieder fest, dass die berechnete Fuel-Menge nicht passt. Lass ich den Flugplan in TOPCAT übertragen, wird die Flugdistanz immer nach oben korrigiert. Die durch TOPCAT erstellte Fuel-Menge wird dann entsprechend angepasst und reicht dann auch aus. Dieses Problem habe ich bei der PMDG 737 und der PMDG 772LR. Bei der QW787 wird auch eine zu geringe Treibstoffmenge errechnet. Was mach ich in der Nutzung falsch? Herzlichen Dank und liebe Grüße Christian

Hi, I creating my custom OFP using the Jetplan flight plan (using LAN Airlines format). I need to know which field type can I use to calculate the MDF: fuel and time. According to our Jetplan OFP manual, MDF means the minimum fuel to go to the alternate airport which is the sum of trip fuel from destination airport to alternate airport and alternate hold fuel. Based on the attached photo, the MDF is as follows below for clearer understanding: ALTERNATE 03504 01.25 HOLD ALTN 01200 00.30 MDF 04705 01.55 I read through the PFPX OFP manual but I didn't see anything that would satisfy the MDF …

Hi all, I'm in the process of creating an OFP template and ran into a few issues. Maybe one of you guys has an idea on how to resolve them? 1) Is there a way to display the ETOPS fuel and time like this? I find that only <&EROPSFuel> is available, I can't find any operator for the resulting time. 2) Can I display an Enroute Alternate when I'm planning with one, and have it say "N/A" when not? Like this: or: 3) ETOPS related...is there a way to compress the ETOPS results that PFPX gives, and add in the bold items? This is how it should end up: …

Happy New Year, maybe I'm stupid but where to update to the latest version? I can only find the full installer and remember on previous versions that there always was an update file/installer. Don't want to use the full one as it maybe will delete all data as we had on a previous version. Could someone point me to the right way please?

Thanks to Christian in addition to the recent NAT's fix PACOTS are now once again available. AUSOTS still appear to be suspended so won't be listed.

Hello, to the expert(s) here 😉 I was wondering if there is a way to create an average track for the main route. Unfortunately, even though the data field is available for the alternates, it is not available for the main airports. I tried a combination of all relevant data fields to see if it was there but not mentioned. No luck. Would there be a way to at least create a magnetic track (MT) number, using the two airports? Thanks..

Recently I had to do do a clean install of Windows 10. After reinstalling PFPX, my weather and tracks will not update. I have the PFPX exe file excluded from any virus scans, and my server subscription shows I still have 100 days left. Is there by chance a problem with the servers today? If not, does anyone have a suggestion as to how I might fix this problem? Thanks in advance for any help offered.

Hello, today I realized that PFPX does not download any NAT tracks although there are tracks published (one for each direction during Corona times). Is it a server issue? Weather is working fine. Regards Henry

Prohibited FIRs and UIRs may be specified in the PFPX.Configuration.Planning window. At present I use the following prohibited FIRs: DTTC, HCSM, HLLL, HSSS, OAKX, OSTT, OYSC, SVZM, UKDV, UKFV and ZKKP. I don't know whether these are valid. Is there a data source that I could use that would enable these parameters to be kept up to date?

Hi there, Not sure if this has been reported yet but I seem to be getting this error when using PFPX online weather. It also seems the validity is only till 1200 Zulu today. Thanks in advance!

Hey, Does anyone here have a profile for the MSFS A320Neo? Maybe the FlyByWire version? It's still not on Simbrief.

Hello Is there any way to export LAT/LON fix in 7 digits format? like N00W000

Hey PFPX users I was wondering if anyone can make me a PFPX template if I give you an Alaska Airlines OFP and create it in to PFPX format. I'm getting an OFP right from Alaska airlines dispatch. I'm just not smart enough to do it I would really like to get some help

Not sure if this has been previously posted yet or not. But we have upgraded to the latest version, and I know this has been an issue from previous versions. When ever we try to add company notams after logging in to a VA, we get a Connection Error. Doesn't matter what information we enter nor which notam window (Airport or NOTAMs.) we are in. We can add them offline though.

I usually retrieve some NAT Track and NOTAM information which usually provides them in a handy way but for a few days now this isn't working anymore Is the server down or even no longer in 2021? Best regards draci

After installing the public beta for Rex SkyForce with P3D V5.1 compatibility, I set the proper path to the metar_report.xml. PFPX gives an error that it cannot read the weather and then choses 'no weather'.

I've had this problem for a long time now but it's just got so irritating now that I wanted to post something to see if there is a resolution. As far as I can see the application is working (I'm using v2.03) but it's incredibly slow to use, really it's unusable how it is. For example loading and selecting the Flight tab, my wait time before it's available is over 30 seconds (this is not an exaggeration). If I click another tab then back to the flight tab, again the wait time is very, very long. Opening the route database takes well over 1 minute. Checking (which I remember used to be very quick) on routes in the database now takes on average 1 second per route, again…

Merry Xmas (for those of you that celebrate it) to the FS community! Have a question for you folks out there. Something I have not been able to find is any information on how to change from lbs to kgs and back on the fly while I'm in the planning phase of my flight. I have several aircraft defined as kgs but in the US those aircraft are flown using lbs. I don't really want to have to redefine EVERY one of those aircraft just to have them register lbs. Is there a way to select lbs while I'm planning? Thanx! -Rick

Hab nach langem wieder PFPX installiert ,leider stürzt mir das Programm beim Start ab, die runtimes habe ich de und neu installiert leider ohne Erfolg. Mein System win 10 Prof 20H2

In the Airport Data window under Departure Runways/Procedures how would you default PFPX to chose NOEND4 as a default departure for Rwy 33 if winds are favoring that runway?

Not connecting to D/L wx and tracks' also not connecting for activation or Server Subscription.

Good morning .Am having a big problem right now with PFPX,I was running version 2.03 and when I check I notice there is a update So I do the update from 2.03 to 2.04 ,and after the update PFPX not responding .I try many things and even to uninstalling version 2.04 and reinstall version 2.04 and it the same problem

Hi, Attached is an image captured from another PC that has version V2.03 that I am going to retire soon. I used the OFP PFPX format. Recently, I installed PFPX on a newer PC that I will be using in the future. Version V2.03 was installed on the new PC. Both PC's have 2.03. But for some reason, the Summary page is missing, which is highlighted in the by the red mark. BTW - I use OFP PFPX format on this PC. What do I need to do to get the Summary Page back when I print out a flight plan using Bullzip PDF Printer? Bill Clark

Is there any issues today with the servers?. My PFPX is trying to connect to server and nothing. I have a valid license.

Hi guys, does anyone know what flight planning company westjet uses, I wanna use the closest available for pfpx. Rob
