• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

VOR in flight plans

Hi,
Flight plans in real life, and in FS, contain VORs points also. I cannot find a way to insert a VOR point in an AI flight plan. I want to implement a plan to exercise following other plane. An AI flight plan will take the plane from APT1 to APT2 in a straight line, except for takeoff and landing segments. The motivation (maybe not realistic) is that in Israel one is not allowed to fly directly, but along certain routes dictated by regulations in force (CVFR). Is there a way to include VOR and similars into AI FP?
Thank you,
Florin.
 
Generally, no.

Some simmers have created what they call "waypoints" (I believe by creating airports in the sky with one heliport - the minimum configuration for an airport) routing the AI to each "waypoint" in turn - making use of Flightsim's procedure of continuing on to the next airport if it can't land at the designated one.

I've tried this approach; the results were not satisfying to me. But other may have a different perception and post their thoughts
 
hi florincoter

If your still simming
another way I was told and have had some ok results with is to create a runway, on the ground, but shorter than the aircraft can accept even for TnG, This way it will just cruise over the top of said airport. As I said it works about 50% of the time.
I wanted to simulate Typhoons out of Lossiemouth, Scotland careering down the Great Glen low level. Works 50% of the time.
