"As many of you know, we had to disable our Flight Dispatch Generator several weeks ago due to some technical problems. Mike has since been very busy designing our own Route Planner that will drive the Dispatch Generator in the near future. The Route Planner portion of it has been in testing for a few days now and is working very well with the exception of a small area concerning TOC and TOD. This will hopefully soon be fixed, get more testing and then be built into the Dispatch Generator for all pilots to access and use for their flights. As our flights are all high altitude, our route planner uses High Altitude Jetways, VOR's and NDB's. When comparing our routes with those generated with FSBuild, many of ours are a little shorter and more direct and that was our goal. We are also considering offering access to just the Route Planner part of the program for those that just want to take a quick look at a proposed flight plan before generating a Dispatch. "

Will the route generator include the current NAT and PACOT routes? Dan

Are we on our own to get FS9 formatted flight plans to match the dispatch releases?

It will convert to FS9 format with the push of a button.
