    Hi,
    Thanks for this - very helpful :)
    A couple of points of clarification / suggestions re some of the items you mentioned:
    - Updating Scenery Library - This needs to be done whenever airports are added to the Sim (such as with most World Updates, and some Sim updates) and if the core navdata within the game is updated (some Sim Updates) - especially if not using Navigraph data (see next point)
    - Advice to use Navigraph for Navaids and procedures, is only valid if you have a Navigraph subscription. Whilst the app ships with Navigraph data, it's from 2018, and the procedures are way out of date even compared to what's in the SIm. If you don't have a Navigraph subscription (which let's face it, there's not a log of point for those of us playing on console) then the correct setting to use (as long as you have been able to import data from FS) is **Do not use Navigraph database** as this will then get all data from the Sim imported data... which should then match with in game...
    - Whilst the Navigraph data may be better, the built in data for airports imported from FS2020, is woefully incomplete, especially for smaller airports, and airports outside of the US, which means searching via city / region / etc. will often give a subset of the airports (or airstrips) actually available.
    - Weather data availability is often inconsistent outside of US, especially for smaller airports / less dense areas. Often data can be days out of date, if available at all
    - Weather data with live weather in Sim... can be way different to actual live weather coming from RL... because... Microsobo... so sometimes it's an idea to check in game as well...
    - For VFR flight planning, it can be really helpful to change the theme used in order to get a better feel for the topography. Personally I recommend using a combination of OpenTopoMap, Google Maps Terrain / Satellite and OpenStreetMap, especially if planning a route in remote hilly areas

I have thought about getting some of these paid addons you reviewed here, but I am waiting for the drop of Navigraph Charts 8 coming very soon. I am hoping they really start incorporating a lot of these programs into theirs. I am sure you will do a review on the product once it's released. It looks very good by the trailer. Thanks again as always.

    I'm pretty new to MSFS, but I definitely want to learn flight planning. LNM looks like a great tool, and you are a great teacher. Thanks! Frankly, with all the features and complexity, I can't believe it's freeware. If it works out for me the way I think it will, I'll definitely donate to the developer. Work like this should be rewarded.
    A question: You mentioned that the app probably uses 'average passenger weight' in the fuel tab. Do you know if there's a list of average passenger weights for aircraft in the sim?

    • @2020fsers
      @2020fsers  Рік тому

      Thanks for the comment . About the weight I am not to sure . You may try and email the developer from their website about that he may not even have weights in the algorithm idk for sure.

    I do have a question. It has happened to me several times now that after planning the flight in LNM and loading it into MSFS, there is a sudden deviation of 5000 NM or so. Straight up this time and straight back.
    Everything on LNM looks fine, but then in FS it sends me to the moon.
    Does anyone have the same experiences?

    • @2020fsers

    Excellent video, I'm just starting with sim, but I installed this app and doing my 1st flight plan. Question though... is it possible to add more of a "trip" than a flight? Meaning, 1 flight plan, going thru multiple airports for a longer journey? I see I can add airports as waypoints, but I can't seem to be able to add a proper traffic pattern or landing procedure on the middle legs airports, if I do, it sets it as the final destination.

    • @2020fsers
      @2020fsers  Рік тому +1

    Excellent tutorial, congrats! 🙂 I created step by step exactly the same IFR fligth plan using Asobo's Cessna C700 Longitude, but when I loaded it into the MSFS the plan altered significantly especially at the departure SID and at the arrival/approach phase. What can I do to have in in the aircraft exactly the same flight plan as created by the Little NavMap?

    • @2020fsers
      @2020fsers  Рік тому

      Thanks for the comment . What I do is not load the fpl in msfs I only use the start location but If you want to have atc in sim then I guess you need to . So what I would recommend is to not load your sid and star or approach when you export .then after you export sure put them into littlenavmap then when you load the fpl in msfs you can manually enter the sid and star or approach there and all other waypoints should stay the same.

    • @2020fsers

    Is there a rule of thumb of how many Mods in the Community folder is too much? I usually load the scenery I want for specific flights. Does this mean I need to run the scenery library downloader every time? Scenery purchased on the MS Store also errors due to its security implementation. Does this mess me up if I use those airports?

    • @2020fsers
      @2020fsers  9 місяців тому

      thanks for the comment ... Im not sure if there is a limit but i do know the less you have in the community the better it will be (less conflicts and faster load times) the scenery library only needs to be updated when you install new scenery or download any from the marketplace. ms store scenery that doesnt show in LNM due to errors wont mess up anything they just may not show in the LNM application.
