Normally when you load up a GA plane your flight plan from the world view is auto-loaded into the GPS. However I don’t see that happening even though it’s just using a GNS430.
Does anyone know how to load your flight plan into the Starship’s GNS?

As I understand it, the starship flightplan and the GNS430 flightplan are not linked together.
I do not fly with the GNS430 (not needed unless you want to fly a LPV approach).
For 2024, what I do is load a flight plan from the world screen before a flight.
I then send the flightplan to atc and the avionics.
When I load into the plane, the flightplan is already loaded and ready to fly.
Note, there may be some issues doing it this way, I believe Nick prefers that you input the flight plan manually.
I fly in VR (which makes manual entry somewhat tedious, no keyboard) so I use the world map way and it works fine for me.
thanks for the reply. after playing with it some more I did realize that the World Map flight plan is indeed loaded in the Starship’s FMS (and like you said, not the GNS430 which is just mostly a backup). i usually only use simple flight plans so it seemed to load just fine.
this is a complicated plane though so still a lot to learn!
