Export file type changed and is not recognised by MSFS

Charts General
1

Hi

I have been using Navigraph for a few weeks and have been able to create and export many flight plans into MSFS without issue. Today when exporting a new plan I found that when I tried to load it as usual MSFS did not recognise the file type. I discovered that the file has been exported but the file type is different from the previous files that have been created and worked correctly.

Included are a couple of screen shots that show the properties of the original file type that works and the new file type that does not. I am not doing anything differently when creating these plans and would like to know if anyone else has had a similar issue and what the solution may be.

Hi…,

Welcome.

When you Export in Charts and choose MSFS pln format, check you have the .pln extension in the File name:

Hi Ian

I have added the .pln extension to a couple of flight plans manually and this has solved the problem that I was having. I am not sure why this did not need to be done originally but as a workaround it is fine.

Thanks for your assistance,

Kind regards
