- New to X-Plane? Quick 3 min video on how to generate and load a flight plan using .fms file into the default FMC.
Steam users . You may have to create the "Output\FMS Plans" folder manually. It should be in
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\X-Plane 11\Output\FMS plans" or wherever you have selected your Steam root folder.

Thanks! Simple and short. Perfect for those starting out on learning how to get from one point to the other as a kind introduction to a more complicated matter.
Thank you so much for the tutorial
I was struggling to set up my flight plan just from arrival and departure page and then just modifying legs page. That didn't work properly most of the time. Once I found the website and entered my info it worked first try! THANK YOU SO MUCH LAD!
Nice and simple, thanks!
Thank you Sims, great work!
Alright everything is working, thank you man
Top notch thank you sir
Thank for helping me!
the map has been take away from the planner setup as it now cost to use ... but the plan will still work ...
It was this simple the whole time...thanks lmao
Is it enough, if I import this into my FMC after creating the .fms file of Simbrief and then click on EXEC, or do I have to seperat under DEP / ARR again the RW, STARS. Choose SIDS, etc., if I have already selected them when creating the flight plan in Simbrief, ie the runway from the departure airport and the destination airport?
Follow the video exactly and it will work. Some minimum entry is required.
Fantastic.
Thankyou!
how does this work on macos? i’ve done everything and put the fms file in the fmsplans folder and it doesn’t show on the fmc
is vnav also included in the fms file?
Thanks you are the best
Thank youuu i never used to understand
God Bless you Sir
Thank you so much. Can you do a tutorial for auto pilot? lost on that one.
autopilot on a 737 is easy my dude.
i think a 13 year old kid could be able to manage it easily,, just read what the buttons do its common sense
Press vnav and cmd
@@syn4121 hey man everyone has different knowledge and levels along with different understanding speeds dont be harsh
Wow, thank you. This helped soooo much. Thank you.
I don't have the folder in output. What can I do?
Hey I’m new at this game, how do I setup VNAV/AP with this flight plan?
go to the steam app data folder then look for common folder then hit x plane folder.. then output .. look and you will see the fmc folder then just add file ... should be good to go guys
THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOO MUCH
i cant find the fmc folder
@@polarisrider6969same
try creating folder for me it worked@@polarisrider6969
Mine says key not active what does that mean
using a generated flight plan. We still have to input the landing runway in the fmc?
Edit. Yes we do and works very easily
Where is the fmc file for xplane 11 i cant find it
Legend.
I live by LVZ waypoint.That is Wilke Barre PA!
I have steam Xplane 11 and I can’t find the FMS folder
same problem
@@FaresFakhouri u need to create it yourself
You have to make it
Yeah I have the same problem
@@kamicj3522how
Wow, great, thank you! So, no hassle with finding out SID´s and STAR`s?
What if it doesn’t show any fms file because I tried many different FPLs and none show fms it’s all .pdf and .pln
How are you generating the fms file? Simbrief? It has to be a text file with .fms extension in order to show up in FMS
thank you👍
I do exactly the same steps but I can´t find any routes in the fmc when I look under co route lists. There are no routes listed although those files exist in the original folder.
Same
Is any way to fix?
where do i find the xplane output folder cant seem to find it .Thanks
thomas hopkins same I don’t know where to put it
You have to make 1 yourself
Will sid and star will be loaded or I have to do it manually
I am using this but my plane doesn't descent or hold altitude it always climbs
Pls help
?? Bro the flight planner doesnt fly for you you have to rely on ATC for the coordinates,, and know your own flight plan so that you can set the autopilot to hold vectors
Than you 👍
Thank u
Life saver
when i load the flight plan it puts not in database
I don't get the route menu button?
does not work for x12 fyi; crashes the gsme on launch
Hi and thank you in advance. I followed the video and I have X-plane 11 on my D:Steam\Steam\Games\X-Plane 11\Output\FMS Plans\EGCCLEAL01.fms … But when I am in X-Plane 11 on the FMC and I click on FPLN then ROUTE MENU then CO ROUTE LIST …. the file EGCCLEAL01.fms isn't showing like it is showing yours (it is just blank and only showing in the window.... CO ROUTE LIST 1/1 load plan load plan ) So it isn't loading the EGCCLEAL01.fms into the window on the FMS??? HELP PLEASE. Thank You.
You might be using Zibo 737 not the default 737? The procedures are different for that aircraft.
@@SimsSmith Hi Sims Smith. I have opened X-plane 11 and loaded the 737-800 (there was a 737-400 there as well as a few smaller planes so I don't know about any Zibo planes? I'm a bit of a novice at this but I am learning fast. So if you could explain it in laymans terms for me, thanks
@@JustMeZero988 Hi, have you solved this problem? I have got exactly the same problem. Cant find anyone else having the same trouble.
Thanks
I get no map when i create
i upload the fms files into a manually made FMS plans file. and when i go to the sim nothing shows up under co route list. please help
Quick check.
1) Have you created the "FMS plans" folder? For example "C:\X-Plane 11\Output\FMS plans" or in Steam it will be "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\X-Plane 11\Output\FMS plans" .
2) You are using default 737 and not ZIbo? If Zibo the procedure is a bit different
3) Loaded the aircraft with "Start with engine running"
4) Load to airport KSFO
5) Save this sample fms file in your "FMS Plans" folder github.com/Simssmith/public-share/blob/master/x-plane/fms/ASFOLAX.fms or here it is copy from "I" all the way to "-118.407114" into note pad and save it as ASFOLAX.fms . Remember windows by default will put a .txt extension in the file. Remove the extension and it should only be .fms

6) Follow the exact procedure in the video and it worked for me just now using 11.50b14 version. If your AIRAC cycle is different there will be a warning but you can ignore it .
@@SimsSmith so sorry to bother you but i had it named FMC intead of FMS, thank you for the video though it saved me a lot :)
@@pr1ckt lol i did the same mistake thank you for giving your feedback or i would had much longer time to notice my own mistake :P
Does this only work with Heavy aircraft? Is there an option for the G1000?
When I Look In The X-Plane Folders There Is No MFS Plans Can Anyone Help? So Do I Create A MFS plans? Or No???!!!
its FMS PLANS NOT MFS
HOW can i see my airac cycle?
Than you :D
please make a/p video
My X-Plane 11 on the 737 don’t look like this on iOS how i change dest airport
This is for X plane 11 not x plane 10
this is for xplane 11, requires a good computer. Xplane 10 is not that great and is quite outdated.
does anyone else not have a fms plans folder?
My FMS says "No database" why?
Also works in xplane12?
I don't see my fmc folder an I using steam version of x plane
create the folder with the exact name "FMC plans" (without ") :)
@@CA-FE-C0-FF-EE-00 I made one titled FMC plans in my output file in X-Plane but it is not showing up. Please help I’m confused.
@@jackgoodman6976 Its FMS plans, he must have accidently typed it.
when i load up the flight plan x plane crashes
help theres no flightplan folder in my xplane
Did I have to make an Xplane fms folder in the output bit? There wasn’t one?
yes you have to make one
@@SimsSmith thanks mate 🙌🏼
I can't load co -route from ouput file. Can anyone help me ?
make a file in output 'FMS plans' the name is FMS not FMC
It wont work for me, I already created the .fms file and created the folder and it wont work.... Can anyone help me?
Edit:Im using toliss a321
For ToLiss A321 you have to create the flight plan in simbrief and it will auto import it for you. Search for it in TH-cam.
Mine says that it’s a pdf or a fpl. What do I do? There is no where to click that says fmc. Also where the heck is an FMC folder? I’m new to X plane and just want to make a cool flight in the simplest way.
*Steam users* . You may have to create the "Output\FMS Plans" folder manually. It should be in
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\X-Plane 11\Output\FMS plans" or wherever you have selected your Steam root folder.
Yeah I have no idea what your talking about.
@@lucashertig8030 you probably have a cracked/pirated version or the wrong game
it doesn't work on mac?
HOW I CAN SAVE IT PLSSSS???
I dont have an FMS plans folder. Do I have to create one?
Where is your x-plane installed?
@@SimsSmith No worries. I managed to solve the problem. Thanks for the response though
@@olliecole7163 Can you share what you did with the rest of us?
Doesn't seem to work on a MAC.
how do i get the xplane11 output folder.
Normally in Windows c:\X-Plane 11\Output\FMS plans
Got it now thanks
It works with the zibo 737-800X?
of course
I dont have an fms folder
I have xplane11 but I don’t know why I have only American 737 and no other liveries 😅😅😅
Not all waypoints fit into fmc. Help?!
Correct see which version of AIRAC Cycle is being used. Way points are constantly added/deleted/updated every 3 months. I subscribe to navigraph.com to get latest to keep X-Plane and Simbrief in sync.
Im using x plane 11 demo with tht be why?
@@SimsSmith and can i not keep using the ones on simbrief instead of navigraph
@@thecyberbiscuit2 Simbrief support AIRAC version 1703. This version is free but I don't know how to install this in X-Plane demo without Navigraph. You can reach out FMS and Nav data experts in here forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/forum/315-xp11-fms-and-nav-data/
when i go to load my flight plans when i choose the one i want it just doesnt work
same here, have been trying to figure it out for hours by now
lol, make sure it's named "FMS plans"; mine was named "FMS Plans", it was showing up but didn't load.
Andrei ohhhhhhh I think my one is the same
@@1C3M4N2160 i checked and my one is called FMS plans but still doesn't work :(
my xplane 11 dont have fms folder i downloaded from steam please help me
see video description on where you have to create a folder.
@@SimsSmith ok thx it worked
Does this include the runway ?
No, that needs to be done through "DEP/APPR" button manually.
i cant find the fms plane folder
same
i cant find the fms folder how can i find that works a
It is not there by default. Users needs to manually create it.
@@SimsSmith thx and how i think i have the demo xplane 11
Ugh this is getting so annoying , where do I find the fms folder to put the flight plan in
you have to create it manually. See video description.
Sims Smith thanks I found out after lol and great vid btw .
