Hi everyone, I've been following the tutorial on how to use the FMC but when it gets to the step to import the flight plan, mine doesn't show up at all on the FMC. I created one going from KJFK to KLAX using the FS Flight Planner and one on simroutes.com. I load the FP into FSX but it doesn't show up on the FMC. I don't know if this has been answered before, sorry if it has but I just want to know how to correct this. Also, I'm sort of new to this so bear with me  :)

I am not familiar with FS Flight Planner or simroutes.com but I imagine they have an option to save any flight plans created and you can probably specify where to save them. The plan should be saved to C:\Users\your id\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files. Once the plan is saved in the Flight Simulator X Files folder you should be able to get the plan into the FMC per the instructions in the tutorial.
