FLT PLAN CONVERSION

Post by Brogs »

"Hi Feller,s There is a great facility on the below link for converting .PLN files to .rte Files which enables you then to paste the file direct into the PMDG Flight Plan Folder, thus cutting out a lot of Manual Entering of the data, plus it,s FREE ! Safe Landings, Mike :lol: Design: Alan WL Chan Version: 1.01 Description: PLN2RTE is an utility for converting FS2002/FS9's flight plan (.pln) into .rte format. The converted .rte format is compatible with PMDG's 737NG FMC. For FS2002, FS2004 [Edit TH: Link removed]"

I have been using from Farstone Technology Inc. their Virtual Drive 9 and it solve the above problem. Basically you have on your hard drive a copy of the Disc 4 and you never have to insert the disc in your PC. It is worth the expense. http://www.farstone.com/"

Bryan, you obviously did not see Canadian jails; they are called Club Fed. A Minimum one in B.C. even has a 9 hole...go figure..."

"There,s a Gaol over here called Pentonville,its in London and its just been on the News that they want to close it because the Inmates are frightened of the Gaolers and it,s infested with Rats (the four legged kind ) and Roaches. Personally I think the more Gaols like that the better ! its a punishment for Gods Sake ! Mike :evil: "if you cant do the Time, don,t do the Crime ""

The FS9 "no-CD-pacth" is not illegal at all. It is an official .EXE from Microsoft of the OEM-FS-version for notebooks. I am using this EXE for three years and do not feel that I am violating any copyrights.

"Thanks, Bodo! I thought so too (that's the exe that I use as well). It doesn't make ANY sense having to grind one's original FS CD to bits in the CD-ROM year after year after year (having bought the game fair and square). I hate those "you have to insert your original CD to play" copy protections. Just makes life difficult also for those of us who pay for our software! It's sort of like shooting flies with a cannon. Anyway, happy flying! Petri"

Not to get away from airplanes but a friend working for Correctiond Canada told me that if they have been 'good' the are allowed their Gamecube (at ther time) in what we call 'The hole'. Canadian Prisonners also have Duty Free cigarettes and it is also the only Federal building were they can smoke although the Guards and the Warden can't mind you. :?"
