Title: first flight questions regarding planing
Post by: Peter Little on Jul 16, 2016 13:31
Hi
I'm about to do my first flight,but have a few questions with setting the flight up properly.
I use PFPX for all my flight planning,so I have downloaded and installed all the relevent stuff for intercity and pfpx,however on the intercity acars screen you use simbrief, which I assume will populate the performance data and ZFW etc
Do I have to do anything special with the acars or pfpx for this to all tie up.
Or do I only need to put the relevent data into the aircraft fmc
thanks

Hi Peter, welcome aboard! Use of SimBrief and Intercity generated performance data is optional, you are welcome to use PFPX instead and we provide a file for use with PFPX on our downloads page  :) All you need to do is decide which data set you're using and plug it in to the fuel and payload settings in FSX, and the aircraft FMS.
