Toni Carrera Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Hi Fellow Pilots, I want to get more in to flight planning with the missions I create for myself in the Mission Editor. I want to be able to calculate total route length, estimated fuel usage between Waypoints, speed changes for waypoint eta's etc. Perhaps even Fuel usage at higher/lower altitudes. Obviously, there is the in-Flight FPAS tool, but that is not enough and I do not have access to it I am not sure whether this is possible within DCS. I also have a fully licensed copy CombatFlite if anyone knows if it is possible to do that in there Thank you for your attention Toni 1 Toni Carrera (Ice Rhino) ThrustMaster HOTAS Warthog Throttle & A10C Stick, ThrustMaster F/A-18C Stick, ThrustMaster TFRP Pedals, ThrustMaster Cougars x 2, fitted to CubeSim USB Screens, TrackIR 4 Active LED & Cap Reflector, Stream Deck XL Intel® Core™ i7-5820K 12 Core Processor, 32GB RAM, 1 x 500GB SSD, 2 x 256GB SSD, 1 x 1TB SSD 4 x 4TB Western Digital Mechanical. 2 x ASUS GTX 1080's SLI, ASUS 29" Ultrawide flanked by 2 x 22" IPS Monitors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean you dont have access to it while in ME? First become an aviator, then become a terminator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Carrera Posted October 22, 2021 Author Share Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) Hi Tim, I literally just read my original post again before I got to your response and thought to myself that what I said did not make sense Yes, do not have access to it in the ME, but also would have been nice to get the information for the whole of the Waypoint System and FPAS etc, exported to some format that I could perhaps I could import in to a Macro'd Excel Document etc I am probably trying to reinvent the wheel, I just want detailed leg information on est. fuel usage, time for waypoints etc etc presented in some nice familiar document, Not looking to get it on Kneeboard. Perhaps just images of an in-grid format; Sort of like this, but pertaining to Fuel and Distances etc for my flight Edited October 22, 2021 by Toni Carrera Initial image incorrect 1 Toni Carrera (Ice Rhino) ThrustMaster HOTAS Warthog Throttle & A10C Stick, ThrustMaster F/A-18C Stick, ThrustMaster TFRP Pedals, ThrustMaster Cougars x 2, fitted to CubeSim USB Screens, TrackIR 4 Active LED & Cap Reflector, Stream Deck XL Intel® Core™ i7-5820K 12 Core Processor, 32GB RAM, 1 x 500GB SSD, 2 x 256GB SSD, 1 x 1TB SSD 4 x 4TB Western Digital Mechanical. 2 x ASUS GTX 1080's SLI, ASUS 29" Ultrawide flanked by 2 x 22" IPS Monitors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
