Can someone please tell me how to setup a IFR plan within 2024? The steps and process.
Thanks

The AP, Auto Pilot, will use NAV to follow the Flight Plan.
Set your cruise altitude, 3000 feet.
Click VNAV or VS to set vertical speed.
VNAV is easiest.
Set FLC.
The first waypoint on the plan is AGNSS .
In the Longitude FMS, I have to select Direct to for the AGNSS waypoint to get the magenta line and AP to follow the Flight Plan.
Click APPR when you reach AGNSS to arm the switch from NAV
to LOC, runway Localizer, to pick up the Glide Slope.
Set altitude to FAF altitude. VNAV will take you down but do it yourself if VNAV doesn’t.
TALTE is the FAF and start of the Glide Slope.
You need to be at the FAF altitude and slow speed in order to activate the Glide Slope.
The correct altitude is displayed on the Charts or FMS.
Glide slope goes active.
Watch you speed, slow down.
Use flaps as required.
Do nothing until you get to 200 feet and get ready to flare & land.
Does this process work with all aircraft paid and free where you dont need simbrief? It should execute the flight plan to the aircraft your using?
I’m not sure it works with aircraft carried over from 2020.
The import into avionics will not work in all aircraft. It will definitely not work in anything still 2020-native, and many third-party 2024-native aircraft will also not support it (PMDG, Fenix, etc.). You’ll need to consult documentation and tutorials for those specific aircraft to get the route into the system.
So it’s probably safer to use Simbrief and import the flight plans that way with ALL aircraft?
