Flight planner question

[Landman]

In Prepar3d when using the flight planner is it possible to create your own waypoints like you can in FSX by grabbing the flight path with the mouse and dragging it to a certain point on the map and releasing the button?

Also, can you use the autopilot to follow a GPS course that follows you route from the flight planner map like you can in FSX? You know - Like when you take off at night on a long haul flight like LAX to Sydney then go to bed then wake up the next morning and land.

Hey LandMan,

First question; Yes. You click on the highest waypoint or airport (first one on top) and click Edit. Then grab the flight path string with the mouse and drag and add your waypoints. In FSX, its always grab-able. In P3, you have to use the highest airport selection, click on Edit and start adding/deleting waypoints.

Second question; Yes. Same way as FSX with AP.
