Simbrif recall does not work!

[flyfx82]

Good moning! I am just studying this beautiful airplane and have run into a problem downloading from simbrif! My ID number is entered correctly, I do FPLN RECALL and SEND, but the flight plan does not come! What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Please post your Log.txt and a screenshot of SimBrief dispatch page and the FPLN RECALL page as you enter the data.

I'm sorry for the trouble! Looks like I figured it out! It is just advisable to enter the flight number and you need to wait a longer time than usual!

And where would you put the flight #?

In the FPLN NUMBER field?

You can refer to Loading a Route Via Datalink in the FMS Primer document provided in the plane’s directory.

Potentially up to 15 minutes with slow bitrate data link and long flight plans.

I already read that whole manual.

It only says to put your Simbrief plan # in.

But there are no plan numbers on a Simbrief briefing.

To eliminate all future confusion to the users, that should be reworded as "Flight number" and not "Plan number", IMHO.

You may have misread. There's no reference to "Plan number" in the FMS document.

I stand corrected; that is on the FMS, and I understood it to be some plan # from the OFP.

Use the Tail  number of the airframe if it's the same as the saved airframe in simbrief
