Reading loaded flight plan in FS9

[borgfan]

Hello,

 

I'm a bit confused as to whether it is possible to read the currently loaded flight plan in FS9.  The documentation seems to describe a path reading mechanism for flights but I think this excludes plans. 

 

The position is FSX is straightforward but clarification and a pointer in the right direction for FS9 would be very helpful.

 

Tks

Sorry, can you be a little more specific here? Are you talking about something in FSUIPC?

Hi Pete,

 

In FSUIPC4 I can read the current flight Plan path &  file name from offset 0130.  This is documented as new to FSX.  I am looking for a way to achieve the same thing using FSUIPC9 on FS9.

Ah. Sorry, I don't know any way in FS9. It was added for FSX because SimConnect offered the facility.

Thanks Pete,

 

I'll look at alternatives.
