Does anyone know if FS Commander Flight plans can be loaded into FSX? I would like to know before I spend any money on it.

I just checked the FSC manual and it says FSC can be used by both, FS9 and FSX. The only difference I could find was building the scenery database. I use it with FS9.

Yes you can Charles. Just make sure your path to the FSX flight plans is correct and have at it. It's phenomenal - including moving map, real time Wx, real time VATSIM, etc. Well worth it. And it works with both FSX and FS9

Let me add two things (as a user of both sims). If you are using with FSX, make sure you click on the drop-down menu for "Window" and go to bottom. You will see two radio buttons (Use for FS9 plans and USe for FSX, or similar langauge). Check "FSX"..also do not forget to run the database manager for FSX so that it can construct the proper cities, airports, ILS's etc for FSX.

Charles, if you need help - there are some features that work better when someone talks you through it - more so than trying to figure it out from the manual - let me know.
