Right mouse click on the highlighted airport. This will bring up a menu to allow to you send the selected airport to the flight plan. Our first NAVAID waypoint along the route is Chicago Heights VOR. Do an ID search for CGT and send it over to the flight plan. Chicago Heights VOR is a Low Altitude VOR with a service volume of 40 nautical miles. At a charted distance of only 7.7 NM, this is well within the reception range. The next NAVAID along the route is Boiler VOR. Do an ID search for BVT and send it over to the flight plan.

Boiler VOR is a high altitude VOR. As mentioned earlier in this chapter, high altitude VORs have a service volume of 40 nautical miles radial distance from 1,000 to 14,500. At a cruise altitude of 5,000 feet for the flight, this would give us a maximum range between VORs of 80 nautical miles. At a charted distance of 61.6 nautical miles from CGT to BVT, planned distances fall within the reception limitations for selected NAVAIDs.

You may then specify a flight plan name. A suggestion would be to simply name the plan for the city pair that you are flying, such as 05C-KLAF. Once a file name is given to the flight plan, click Save. Now that the flight plan is saved, it must be exported for use by Radar Contact. Select Plan and Export.

This will bring up a list of choices for flight plan export. Select the FS2002 option (NOT Radar Contact) and then click OK. Once you click OK, you will be given a choice as to which runway you would like. For the purposes of constructing the plan, either runway is fine so just highlight one you like and click OK. Now you see a window where you can save your plan file to the FS200x flight plan format for use by Radar Contact. Once again, simply saving the plan file as the city pair name is suggested but you may name it as you wish. FSNavigator will use the Myflts folder in the FS2002 directory structure as the default location, but you may specify any other folder you would prefer to use as long as you know where to find the file.

The directory path is shown here. Note that your directory structure may differ if you have installed Flight Simulator in a non-standard location. IMPORTANT NOTE – Selecting FS2000 for the export option will yield the same results, but you will not have the extra step of selecting a runway, and FSNavigator will default to the pilots folder in the FS2000 directory when saving. Once you have saved your route in FS200x format with a .pln file extension, your flight plan is ready for immediate use by Radar Contact. Double-click the Radar Contact shortcut on the desktop. You will see the main screen as shown below.
