Fsbuild-2 Flight Planner

Trying to Import this FS9 flight plan (Coolsky MD81 Tutor flight) into FSbuild but it does not work.

And when I build the route (screenshot) it is wrong also.

Cycle 1309 Navdata.

In the 1309 AIRAC:

KOTEX KOTEX 63.000000 10.540953 EUR
CASAR TNN-191/D51.0 22.291106 120.077022 PAC

D007J doesn't exist.

Additionally, the Lat/Lon waypoints are not read properly and are ignored.

DJ,

I have done a test importing the flight plan into Aivlasoft EFB.

Navdata Cycle 1309 (also).

The import to Aviasoft doesn't tell you anything other than that it may not validate using the AIRAC (FSB does) but just takes the lat/lon data from the plan. It's pretty obvious that FSB parses the PLN file first to create the FSB plan string and then runs that against the AIRAC. I have no idea why FSB's parsing of the lat/lon data on the 'FIXn' waypoints is so odd. Different methods will get different results... Ernie will have to weigh in on this one...

It didn't work with that file because it was expecting a leading zero for the longitude. Perhaps that was the way it was when the feature was first created.

I have corrected it in ver .26

Let me know how it works out.

Thanks Ernie,

Much appreciated.
