I'm currently working on:

Exporting flight plan types, missions, subsets, and a few secret upgrades.

Wow thats a bit of an undertaking, thanks Steve

Bumps in the road:
You may find with certain filters and flight times set, no destinations are found, don't worry, just uncheck filters or increase the flight time window and try another search.
Your airport does not show up, make sure you indexed IF after adding scenery, and there is a "Show All" checkbox on the map page that ignores your flight gen filter settings.

Great support mate

[AaronMyers]

Yep, appreciate all the continued support.

[Steve Waite]

Thought you might like to see the new fuel manual entry form, red minalt warnings and sorted destination lists:







One of the things i'm looking into at the moment is exporting .rt2 or rte files to the coroute folder so the plans can be loaded by iFly and PMDG etc.

Thanks for the kind words.
Steve
