To Christian Grill, Is PFPX dead?
Richard McDonald Woods replied to Cloudster's topic in PFPX - Professional Flight Planner X
I believe that there is no better planning tool currently available for pilots wishing to plan correctly for longer haul flights. PFPX continues to perform well even after all these years. With the coming of GFO, I shall continue to plan with PFPX for my long B777 flights. I accept that if a pilot wants to plan short haul flights then an alternative planning tool might be appropriate. -
PFPX Performance Very Slow

Craig, Will you reduce your fleet size when GFO is able to maintain the fleet? -

Hi Craig, I had the same problems with my v2.04 installation. Many thanks to Stephen (again!) for the above solution. All working correctly now. A very merry Christmas to you and Stephen. -

Hi Jeff, I had a problem recently recovering access to AIRAC data which was resolved by Judith. Also received a seasons greetings from Judith and Christian. So there are 'signs of life'. A very happy and safe Christmas to you. -
Hi Tom, Thanks for your prompt reply. I hope that I am not just 'losing it'! I have certainly run the AS_PFPZ_V204.exe installer. The PFPX.exe Properties>Details window also shows the File version and Productversion as 2.0.4.0. But the app shows Configuration>General as installed version 2.03 and Available version as 2.04 with the Automatically check for updates box checked. No update was automatically offered. What is happening? Kind regards, Richard

PFPX FIR .dat updated
Richard McDonald Woods replied to srcooke's topic in PFPX - Professional Flight Planner X
Hi Stephen. I hope that you are well. Many thanks for the updated FIR.dat. I have not been flying in recent months, expecting early delivery of PMDG GFO. But I feel that it won't be long now and then I can get back to flying my beloved B777. Kind regards, Richard -
Presumably Global Flight Operations will have to maintain aircraft fleets for us to fly. PFPX already has the ability for its users to set up fleets of aircraft for planning flights. Will there be an interface to ensure that the separate fleets are kept in synch so that we can check out an aircraft and then create its flight plan without having to try to keep manually maintained records ?

I have installed AS-Mega-Airport-Frankfurt-20_PROF_P3DV5_V2001.zip within P3Dv5. I purchased it from SimMarket. After installation I have Mega Airport Frankfurt 20 in the D:\Program Files (x86)>Aerosoft folder. P3Dv5 displays the scenery correctly but without SODE functionality. Placing the SODE folder is my problem. I have no folder for Frankfurt in my C:\Users\speed\Documents\Aerosoft. Can you be more explicit about placing the SODE folder please? Many thanks.

Hi Oliver, After failing to understand the SODE installation instructions in the Readme.txt file, your instructions above have confused me even more š§ During installation, like Michael, I installed into my D drive. I now have Mega Airport Frankfurt Professional V5 in the Program Files (x86)\aerosoft directory. I have not installed any of my many airport sceneries into my C drive. Why are Aerosoft setting a standard which I am reluctant to follow? I cannot find an EDDFConfigTool anywhere on my PC. Can you explain, in simple terms, how I can install the SODE program on
