You enter an expected ground speed and the program calculates time from distance. You can plan fights but it's a little different from Skyvector. If there are TAC charts in the area you're looking, you can tell the program to overlay them on the chart seamlessly, or use the default chart. You can zoom in closer than you can in Skyvector making details easier to see. You can alt-tab out to the sim without problems.
#Skyvector to fltplan go full
You can make the display full screen which makes it use your entire desktop. However, I honestly enjoy lock much better.Skyvector was giving me 504 errors this morning so I went searching for other online aeronautical charts and this is what I found: There is an option to go back to the way things were before, called Legacy. To push a control in, lock to the control using LMB and then right click Move the mouse left to turn the knob left, move it right to turn the knob right (with LMB held down)Īlternatively, use the scroll wheel while holding LMB down to turn the knob left or right Now your mouse will not affect any other controls or other mouse bindings It’s a new interaction method called Lock. I’m going to quote from another thread on using the new mode:
#Skyvector to fltplan go how to
I haven’t really tried the newer mode, but hopefully someone will come along and talk about how to do what’s needed to get it “selected” using your mode of mouse. Ok, I use the “Legacy” version of the mouse selector, so I get arrows to turn the dials, and a normal mouse pointer to “push” things. I’m giving you a lot of that by memory, so let me know if you need more info, or just play with them until you see the logic of how they rotate/select various data point. There are some other variations you can use, but I’d advise you to just play around with those dials, buttons, to see what they do in different conditions. You can use the softkeys at the bottom of the page to select the airport, runway, freq, or approach you want to chose, and use the Large FMS dial to rotate through the info in each block and use the ENT key to put the comm/nav freq in the standby position on your panel.
Second, for airports near you, on the MFD, use the Large FMS dial to select the “NRST” page. Just push it again to activate the cursor and go back to what info you want. If you happen to push the end of the FMS dial, it will deactivate the cursor. the ILS freq for the airport you want), push the “ent” button, and that freq will be entered into you Nav 1 standby freq for use later. Once the cursor is on the info you want (e.g. It will move to the next category by itself as it reaches the end of one info block. Press the end of the FMS again to activate the cursor, then use the Large FMS dial to rotate through all the info available. Once you’ve got the second position selected, use the Small FMS dial to change letters/numbers (it rotates both ways), and keep changing positions, and letter/numbers until you got the airport ID inserted, then push the end of the FMS button to select that ID. Use the Large FMS dial to move to the next position in the name (it will go both ways once you’re past the first letter in case you need to go back and correct an input). Press the end of the FMS dial to activate the cursor, then use the small FMS dial to select the first letter of the airport ID you want to use. There are two different ways to get this info, depending on how far away from the airport you are.įirst, for airport NOT near you, use the Large FMS dial to select the “WPT” page (you’ll see the page names at the bottom the screen as you’re turning it and then the labels will go away if you stop).
