At first glance it would appear to be a navigation error, but I would like to see the FPP folder logs for this flight please.

It would be interesting to see, if you ever get around to trying the same flight, if you could insert another waypoint so you had one a bit closer to your departure. Your FP's first fix is some 588 miles from departure.

ill just make sure to put the waypoints not so far apart in the future...PF3 seems to be quite dependent on waypoints to work well...

thanks for taking a look...

You may want to try using Simbrief to make your flight plans. It's free too.

this FP actually was from simbrief...but it only gave me one waypoint as it was a flight in the south pacific with limited navaids or airways...i needed to add custom waypoints for PF3 to work...and i still had a problem...

Did you try Little NavMap program (freeware) ? Works very well !
