Now that I have some more time, I am starting to do a bit more route flying, but am finding that more often than not that the Flight Planner box will not work from a saved flight. I just get a black screen. A couple of times the box has appeared after 10 or 15 seconds but mostly it just stays black. I then have to create the flight and there is no problem, the Flight Planner works as it should.
Cannot recall having this problem in the past.
Any help on how this can be rectified will be much appreciated.
Thanks
John

Is this the Notepad Flight Planner? If so, I’ve never heard of this problem before. I would suggest try loading the plane again to reset things?

Hi Tom
Thank you for your reply. Unsure if it is Notepad.
It is when you first load up or create a flight, I hit the Alt. key and the top menu appears, then I click on "Flights" and the drop down menu appears and then I click on "Flight Planner". If is is a flight I am creating there is no problem, it all works fine. But if I go to "Select a Flight" where I have saved the last flight, when I go through the same procedure sometimes it works and other times I just get the black screen. Have even waited a couple of minutes for it to load and then had to shut down and start again.
Sorry to be long winded but it is the only way I can explain it. It is something I can live with but would be interested if anyone knows what would cause this.
Thanks
John

I have never provided a flight called Flight Planner, so this must be a different Addon.

Hi Tom
It is not any sort of add on, but a standard part of FS9. It has always been there as part of the program.

Ah, the default flight planner. There are several forum posts about this, but I see no solution short of a re-install.

Yes, Default Flight Planner. That is what I should have called it right from the start. Will have a look for the posts about it.
Thank you again.
