Eventhough SimBrief usually offers some good routes for most flights, I often find myself pasting in routes from other sources into the “Selected Route” filed. Those routes usually contain DTC between waypoits, where SimBrief omits DCT at this point for good reason - it’s much more readable. My request is, if you could add the feature to remove all DCT when pasting in routes into this field. Maybe triggered by pressing the “Analyze Route” button.
Thanks for considering and for your continuous work!
I would not be happy if the syntax changed from say BPK Q295 BRAIN M197 REDFA DCT TACHA DCT BATEL T207 OGBER
to BPK Q295 BRAIN M197 REDFA TACHA BATEL T207 OGBER
DCT is a glue for waypoints as a replacement for airway
I agree, it would be just wrong to delete DCT from the route string of the OFP, or ATC flight plan. However, in the Suggested Routes on the New Flight/Edit Flight page, the DCT is omitted - have a look. I feel this is good for editing the route and strangely it also improves readability. My request is particularly aiming to the route filed on this page.
