Hi CoolP.

Thanks for your input on this and for the link to that tool. It's great. I just needed to figure when to load the next "segment" but that wasn't too hard.

That tool is a gem and it sure beats my method (mine is manual and consumes more time).

As for the part about "Situation Save" it isn't too much a problem for me, especially since my children are between 16 and 23 with the eldest having left home. Pets? I have a cat so there no real worries there. ;) I will try to fly my entire route in one sitting. I have done many long haul flights, so I'm sure I'll manage. The main difference is that the INS plans need to be update (loaded) regularly and so you need to keep a closer eye on the navigation.
