Thanks for that - so well explained. I have Navigraph now and currently testing things on their Beta ... no airways yet but think it won't be too long until it's fully compatible! Thank you again!
My pleasure, thanks for taking the time to comment. Yes, I'm using the Navigraph beta data as well. It seems to improve some things and make others worse at the moment, but I'm sure they'll get there.
Sir, can you explain rmi, hsi, ils, vsi,air speed indicator, alitmeter etc. Can you make video in depth basic to advance,error of these instrument . Please make video
Great video thanks. What I'm wondering is that can't we use MSFS by only implementing the routes that we generate in SimBrief? Also there is already ATC which will help us navigate throughout our route. By the way at the moment I'm ignoring the updated informations in Navigraph which are wonderful.
I use Navigraph for the charts, but also to update SimBrief to the latest AIRAC. Without doing that, it'll plan routes using out of date AIRAC data, which means you might have difficulty importing it into the sim because some of the waypoints, SIDS, STARS and approaches won't exist in the sim's database.
Thank you for this video. Unfortunately, the waypoints from the Simbrief flightplan are often not identical to those in the downloaded flight plan in MSFS.
This is most likely due to the default navdata in SimBrief being very out of date. Unfortunately, to use the latest navdata (which should match that in the sim), you need a Navigraph subscription.
@@FilbertFlies I have a Navigraph and in Simbrief the newest AIRAC. I think, the navdata in MSFS are very old. I have tried update the data in MSFS with a tool from Navigraph, but it doesn´t solve the problem.
@@peterherz5942 Oh really? That's strange. I tend to be able to import simbrief plans and the world map screen follows them exactly. Just one more thing to check - are you changing from a runway to a parking spot in the world map screen? If you do this by clicking on a spot on the map, it deletes your flight plan and does its own. If you choose a spot from the drop down menu however, then it keeps the plan you imported. A bit of a long shot, and it doesn't sound like what you're describing, but I thought it was worth checking.
@@FilbertFlies Okay, that´s the problem. I start cold & dark. Then I have to change the starting point and MSFS changed the flightplan. That´s the solve! Thank you for this note!
Very good tutorial! You've got a new subscriber! If I want to use Navigraph for my routing, and import this route to SimBrief to do the rest, like fuel calculations etc, is that possible?
Thanks for this. How do you display the maps while flying, is it in the sim or a separate window? I have Navigraph but will definitely give Simbrief a go.
Navigraph maps display in a separate window but, once you've imported a flight plan into the sim, it'll show up on the sim's VFR map too. The VFR map is pretty basic though.
So, when I follow my route on SimBreif and try to put in the MCDU, some Airways or STARS aren't there. Is this because of me running the old AIRAC cycle?
Thanks for the information! But when I insert the flightplan into MSFS, and change the runway for a gate, it resets the whole route for a standard route descided by the sim :( Is there any way to change the gate, whithout it deleting the whole route?
This happens sometimes for me too. I think I got to the bottom of it yesterday. If you choose a gate on the map, it seems to replan the flight. If you choose a gate from the drop-down menu, it keeps the flight plan you imported. I'm not 100% of this but give it a go and let me know if I'm right.
@@FilbertFlies That works! Thank you so much! Can only change the gate number from the drop-down menu :) The only issue now is that if you change the approach from automatic to a runway, it resets the whole flight again haha
Yeah, it's a pretty weird and buggy system. Report it to MS via Zendesk if you get a minute - the more reports they have, the more likely they are to fix it in the future.
Thanks for the video. How do i choose an aircraft that is not listed in the aircraft type? For example i want to fly the Beechcraft Bonanza 36 in MFS 2020.
Occasionally, a third party will create a profile that you can use (there's one for the A320 NEO & CJ4). Other than that, you're limited to creating your own or using a similar aircraft type.
Is the flight number just random numbers you can put in whatever you want? same with Airline how do you choose what to put in these 2 fields and what is there significance in game
Yes, you can put what you want. Personally, I almost always use real world flight numbers flown by real world airlines. www.flightradar24.com/ is a great resource if you want to do this.
I run MSFS, select departure and arrival airport, select high-alt airways, chose departure/approach/arrival, go to payload and load with some fuel and see a circle if I get to dest airport. The F-plan is automatically loaded into FMC. No Routine. Then the live weather goes into game. Why do I need Simbrief/Navigraph?
@@FilbertFlies Actually, I strive to realism but if it is concerning physics etc but not paperwork. All charts in one place plus MSFS navdata sync seems solid to me but I need one more feature to start paying 10 USD per month. They hire people to develop VFR charts and once it's released it will be that feature. But I am not sure when it will be
Thanks for a very good tutorial. One question: I made a flightplan EHAM/EGNT (Amsterdam/Newcastle). I did not get an approach. Ap directed me direct to the runway and so I could not land. What did I do wrong?
A lot of arrival procedures rely on air traffic control to vector aircraft to final. I've had a quick look at the EGNT STARS and that seems to be the case there, at least with some of them. If you're not flying with ATC, then it's still possible to fly these routes but you'll have to switch to heading mode (selected heading mode in the airbus) and choose headings that line you up with the final approach course.
Unfortunately, the chances of the out-of-date navdata it comes with matching up with the up-to-date navdata in the sim are slim, so you're probably better off using the in-sim flight planner. Alternatively, you could try updating it a couple of times per year or so rather than paying each month - waypoints get added and removed all the time, but you should get away with most routes.
No. SimBrief will choose the most likely departure and arrival runways when planning but your actual runway assignments and approach type (ILS, RNAV etc) would be assigned by ATC.
yes, i can confirm that simbrief is correct by saying that not all STARS and Approaches are loading correcting in the Sim, I just had such case, is there a solution or alternative to this problem?
Navigraph are working on bringing their navdata into the sim. Their new product is in beta at the moment (it's fixed this sort of thing but has caused a few new problems) and will be part of their paid subscription plans. Other than that, there isn't really a solution until MS/Asobo/Navblue fix the navdata issues themselves.
I'm playing on Xbox granted, but I don't know what mistake I am making. Universally, when i set up a Simbrief flight plan and correctly input all the the details into the FMC in the A320neo, the in-game ATC keeps on giving me far lower cruise altitude than what I input in the Init page (say I input CRZ level 350, in-game ATC consistently seems to think my cruise altitude is like 12,000). Any tips?
To be honest, I haven't used the in-game ATC since the first week the sim was out, so I have no idea how it interacts with the A320's FMC flight plan. You might try exporting the flight plan as a .pln file and loading it via the world map screen though - I have a hunch that that'll work better.
@@FilbertFlies Thanks - i just don't get what's going wrong. The cruise altitude is set correctly in init page. Is there any way to specify altitudes for individual waypoints when manually entering a flight plan?
After creating flight plan in simbrief and loading into MSFS, I view it on Navi graph and it corresponds, initially, but then does its own thing until arrival at STAR. any ideas?
But if you mean it does its own thing in MSFS, that's most likely down to you changing the departure runway or choosing a departure gate from the World Map view. If you choose a gate from the drop-down menu instead, it should leave your flight plan intact.
Yes. To get the best out of Simbrief, you'll need a Navigraph subscription to unlock the latest AIRAC cycles. You'll find it works perfectly well with the old navdata, but you may run into issues with certain waypoints no longer existing when you import the plan into the sim, and particularly when you try and file it with VATSIM or IVAO.
I was going to ask ''What are the issues that i'll run into using out of date data'', but quickly realised '' i wouldn't use 20 yr old maps''. Navigraph it is. Regards.

Yes, you can use MSFS by just importing SimBrief routes.
@@FilbertFlies thank you. So why are you using Navigraph alongside with Simbrief? Is it because of regularly updated airport charts?
I use Navigraph for the charts, but also to update SimBrief to the latest AIRAC. Without doing that, it'll plan routes using out of date AIRAC data, which means you might have difficulty importing it into the sim because some of the waypoints, SIDS, STARS and approaches won't exist in the sim's database.

Have a look at flightradar24.com if you're looking for real world flights to simulate.

FilbertFlies i’ll try that. Does your flight plan correspond in navigraph exactly as per MSFS plan?
@@andrewsanderson1235 Yes. with the exception of the approach, which you would expect to be assigned by ATC during descent.
FilbertFlies I just created a flight in MSFS by loading the fp from simbrief. Then viewed it in navigraph and it does now align properly.

Lol, pleased to see you got in there before the rush! ;-)
Most flight plans are discontinuity WTF.
Most flight plans are supposed to have discontinuities in them.

Yes. To get the best out of Simbrief, you'll need a Navigraph subscription to unlock the latest AIRAC cycles.
