SimBrief-generated flight plans can be imported into the GNLU-910A FMS using one of two methods.  


Method 1: CO ROUTE (Company Route)


Once an OFP has been generated in SimBrief, the flight plan file must be saved in an .RTE format by expanding the ‘Flight Plan Downloads’ box at the bottom of the page and then clicking the ‘Download’ button in the box displaying the name of the aircraft you intend to fly. The route file will then download to the normal download location on your PC and will need to be manually copied across to one of the file directories listed below. The file directory varies slightly depending on the store where you purchased MSFS.


Microsoft Store:

C:\Users\**USERNAME**\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\packages\justflight-aircraft-rj\work\JustFlight\FlightPlans


Steam:

C:\Users\**USERNAME**\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\justflight-aircraft-rj\work\JustFlight\FlightPlans


These file directories will be created automatically the first time you load a flight with the RJ Professional.

Alternatively, the SimBrief Downloader desktop app can be used to simplify this process, as once the file directory has been set up in the app, the flight plan file will automatically be saved in the correct directory every time an OFP has been generated on the SimBrief website.


Once a flight plan has been saved to the correct file directory, the flight plan is then ready to be imported into the GNLU-910A FMS.


On the RTE page, enter the filename of the flight plan that is to be imported into the scratchpad and then press the L2 line select key to move the file name into the CO ROUTE field. Once the file name has been entered into the CO ROUTE field, the entire flight plan will be imported into the FMS with the exception of the SID and STAR procedures which must be manually entered by the user. By default, SimBrief saves flight plans with a file name in a format of ‘departure airport ICAO code : destination airport ICAO code’. For example, the file name of a flight plan from LSZH to EBBR will likely be “LSZHEBBR.RTE”, so “LSZHEBBR” must be entered into the CO ROUTE field.



Method 2: Stored Flight Plans


The STORED FLIGHT PLANS page can be accessed by pressing the 2R line select key (labelled FLIGHT PLANS) on the FMS’ INIT/REF INDEX page.


The STORED FLIGHT PLANS page will display a list of all .RTE flight plans that have been saved in the file directories listed in Method 1 above. If more than one page of flight plans exists, the pages can be cycled through using the PRV/NXT keys.


To import a flight plan from the list, simply press the left line select key adjacent to the flight plan that requires importing. Once selected, the FMS will automatically display the RTE page with the selected flight plan imported. SID and STAR procedures will not be included in the imported flight plan and they must be manually entered by the user.


This method is not prototypical for the real GNLU-910A FMS, but we have added it as a quality of life feature for users who may prefer to see a list of flight plans that are available for input.


Note: It is not currently possible to import SimBrief flight plans into the GNLU-910A on Xbox. This is something we are looking in to for a future update, however, we are unable to provide a timeframe for when this may be implemented. Xbox users are still able to manually input a flight plan into the FMS.
