Thanks for that Mark.

I actually have noticed the NAV/GPS switch on the panel but always keep in NAV mode as I prefer to fly it the way they did back in the 'old days'  :)

I use FSBuild and found out about skyvector.com from another thread and have been building my own plans based on VOR/NDB's. I can use FSBuild to convert flight plans to default FSX with SID/STAR's in them which is fine when flying offline, but on VATSIM an ATC would usually issue you with a SID while receiving clearance and it may not be the same as what you have in your flight plan.

I guess I'll just fly the non-RNAV procedures if available or request vectors.
