3.2.4 Flight Plans
Flight Plans are calculated based on the current position and can be recalculated by using the "Refresh" button (useful in case of a siginificant deviation from the original flight plan during flight).
For planning purposes the current position can be set manually using the "Flight Planning Mode".
When clicking 'Insert' or respectively 'Insert Fix', the new Procedure is inserted to the FlighPlan at the most practicable place. Otherwise, the new Procedure is inserted after the current Procedure and becomes the new current Procedure (e.g. via 'Add Directly').
Flight Plans can be rearranged / saved and loaded using the Flight Plan menu.
This exemplary Flight Plan consists of: Direct NOTGA (GNSS/GPS fix) -> Direct GUPIN (GNSS/GPS fix) -> Approach Runway 25 EDDS (Stuttgart).
On top of the Flight Plan window you see the total distance, the estimated time for all procedures and the estimated fuel consumption for all procedures.
