How to batch upload your Flightplans

[jsiebert]

Hi,

I just started a new VA and I'm trying to upload some flightplans. I get to the Import/Export flightplan screen and I click on

Import flightplan from:

TXT

After I click on this I just get a blank screen and nothing further.

Any help ?

Thanks

Hmm i´ve programmed a nice tool to create flightplans for your system

now i want to test

but i can´t upload because of the same problem the 2 others have

can anybody give me an alternativ process to upload the fp to your database?
our admins are not the best so i think mysql direkt upload is no option

Hey guys, I didn't get it.

How do I know the aircraft ID?

I manually created some files in the integrated system and i could fly them. Then I exported the flights and looked at the aircraft ID.

example:
BAD1003,EDSB,LFST,0930,0935,C172,64,,1x,60v$,1,,,1234567,-1,-1,0

All other flights with a Cessna 172 have the ID 64 in the exported flightplan and all my C208 have ID 19.

When I used the method like in the description by holding the mouse oder the aircraft information symbol of the two aircraft at the manufacturer list, i see another number. An when I click at the traders list, every C172 has another ID. And never found the one from my exported flighplan.

So please, can someone tell me what am I doing wrong or what happened and which number I finally have to write in my flighplans to import it.

Hi,

You need to get the ID from the Aircraft Type page. You can either click the info and read the url in your browser address, or hover your mouse and read it from the url at the bottom of the page. The important bit is the ID=*** and when you look at it on the Aircraft Types page it is the ID for the type. When you look at the info for an individual aircraft the id=**** refers to it's unique identity at FSA.

This is the info for the Cessna 172 from the Aircraft Type page and this is the ID you need for your batch flightplan file.

Cessna 172 = ............fsairlines.net/index.php5?status=aircraft_info_n&id=64&status2=logged&va=368&p=382

Hi,

Change your sim rate from 8X to 8x as it spits it out if it's not lower case x. Your v in virtual dollars needs to be lower case also.

Much better

Thanx John

I can now use that method much easier when it works lol it should save hours creating fp (If I dont mess it up)

Good eve.....

Well question, could i let two planes flying the same route, with the same flightnumber?

For example:

NAI144,EDDH,EDDT,1600,1640,CRJ2,2,D-AHAB D-AQQD,1x,10v$,0,AMLUH L619 VIBIS,FL250 - FL999,1234567

So is it possible to made it like this: D-AHAB(space)D-AQQD ??????


Thanks for answering and good night from Germany!

No it is not.

[NAI001]

Ok thanks very much for such a fast answer!!! Then each registration will get their own flightnumber!!!

Have a nice evening!!!!

Hi,

Not sure exactly what you are planning but if you leave the registrations field blank, the plan will be available to all the aircraft you have of that particular type. If you have 10 CRJ2 you want to use on a route, rather than make 10 plans specific to each registration let them all use just one flightplan. The reg field was added to restrict a particular plan to one particular aircraft, if you don't want/need the restriction leave the reg blank.

Finally got this working. I had to enter one aircraft id then edited the routes in bulk once uploaded.

[joefremont]

Yeah! I usually download the existing routes, copy one line that has the AC types I am interested in and replicate it, replacing the flight number departure and arrival airports.
