Bobpr 0 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Hi everyone, I have a SimBrief flight plan saved in my flight plan folder. The route does show in the 'Route Menu'/Pilot Route List and indicates 'Route Loaded' when selected. However, when I return to the 'FPLN' page no flight is shown. (Dumb question) How do I activate a loaded flight plan? Thank you! Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Hans Hartmann 3695 Posted July 19, 2018 Developer Share Posted July 19, 2018 After loading the route, first go to the secondary flightplan page (SEC FPLN), select ACTIVATE and then EXEC. This activates the loaded route and brings you to the normal FPLN page. One word of warning on Simbrief: If you don't use current navigation data with Simbrief but with the CRJ, your flightplan might be outdated and cause a LOAD ERROR.

Developer Hans Hartmann 3695 Posted July 19, 2018 Developer Share Posted July 19, 2018 It works absolutely fine and you can choose a flight level as well. Tons of people are doing that every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mindframe85 0 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Hey. I'm doing the same thing too. I'm having an issue plugging in the numbers I get on the FMC Perf Init section. The iPad keeps resetting the cargo weight and fuel . So I can't even match what I have on the FMC. Not sure if I'm doing this wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Pickering 14 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Yes I loaded the Load manager You cannot send from DAVE when you release the mouse from the click window send to FMC the values vanish from the FMC. I will try and make video tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is the only thing that's been bothering me as of late cause I can't get this thing off the ground without putting in the right payload, fuel, and V speeds correctly.

Well I'm using SimBrief to calculate that using the AUTO option for Cargo , Fuel, etc. If there's a way to load those numbers into the iPad then we're gold. I use the FMC downloader for the CRJ. Load up my flight plan and boom I'm ready to go, but that damn iPad won't allow me to put in whatever weight figures and Vspeeds SimBrief generated.

Developer Hans Hartmann 3695 Posted July 20, 2018 Developer Share Posted July 20, 2018 Interesting. That doesn't happen here. Did you load a flightplan before this happened? If yes, please upload it here, so I can have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Pickering 14 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 No I place the flight plan into the FMC myself. after doing the payload. But I can only enter FL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Hans Hartmann 3695 Posted July 20, 2018 Developer Share Posted July 20, 2018 And the payload and fuel values that are visible in DAVE have been set by the CRJ Manager, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Pickering 14 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I have unblocked load manager in the firewall, and when I load (make) flight plan first then I can load payload from DAVE. So from my side things are now working OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Hans Hartmann 3695 Posted July 20, 2018 Developer Share Posted July 20, 2018 Ah. Good to know. The load manager accesses Simconnect which might be detected by the Firewall. But great to know that it works now :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Pickering 14 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hello Hans Hartman, I am having the same problem again with the FMC I cannot enter anything in the FMC. I have just done the tutorial flight everything works fine until tutorial flight Vol 3 page 2/1/39. which I cannot enter departure or destination airport, FL or PAX manually or with DAVE the only thing I have changed is NAV data base and the new update. I have done one flight after my last post and it was perfect. Any ideas please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Hans Hartmann 3695 Posted July 24, 2018 Developer Share Posted July 24, 2018 I don't know. If the only thing you changed, is the database, there's a good chance that the problem is somehow related to that. Which nav database do you use?

Fred Pickering 14 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Navigraph. I will try tomorrow not from cold and dark so other aircraft status and then a re install of th 1,2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Pickering 14 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 The load manager is loading DAVE. but DAVE or the FMC keys are not able to input into the FMC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Pickering 14 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Well sadly it looks like I will have park this aircraft in the hanger. It must be my unique system as no other people have my problem, strainge is sometimes it works and sometimes mostly it does not I have tried all aircraft, all aircraft panel states, even installed it in steam. As the 32bit version development has been stoped and I deleated the version 1.1 from my download files. I have just given up the interest of flying the CRJ. the load manager is comunicating with DAVE always but the FMC keys and the input windows from DAVE are not comunicating with the FMC. Bye Bye my short lived friend for those who can fly it have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there's not always a simple answer to a question and even I don't always know what causes a problem - if I did, the problem wouldn't exist. If you have that little patience, I really can not help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Pickering 14 Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 It’s not your problem it’s mine as it seems I am the only person, I think I have spent around 12 hours trying to find out why to no avail. I would love to revert back to ver 1.1 but I have defeated it from my hard disc. The main reason that I have given up is I want to get back to my hobby.
