JackSwyr 2 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Hi, I've had PFPX for a couple of years now and have used it extensively in the past in FSX with the NGX, so now that I have P3D v4 (after using 3.4 for a long time) I'm wondering if it's possible to export a flight plan where the new PMDG 747 can upload it into the FMS? I'm still a newbie at this so please go easy on me. I haven't used this program for a very long time so any help will be very much appreciated.

srcooke 422 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 The 747 can pick up plans from the NGX and 777 folders as well as the flightplans root folder. However if you are not using the FSX export paths now simply point the FSX 777 to the P3D 747 PMDG folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do I tell it to navigate to? Can you post a screenshot or two? Thank you for helping me, I really appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Select the FSX 777 line and BROWSE to the P3D 747 flightplan folder: Please login to display this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srcooke 422 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 You haven't browsed ( highlighted in my image ) to the Prepar3D v4/PMDG/FLIGHTPLANS/747 folder, you only placed a tick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted June 21, 2017 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted June 21, 2017 As this is the PFPX support forum I would like to close this topic as the export is working now. Handling questions of the B747 should be discussed in other forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
