I created a little Random Flight Generator which uses the airport data from MSFS 2024. It’s a web based tool with the option to download a flight plan and adjust some settings without compromising the “randomness factor”.
Description and How-To are on the website. Feedback is very welcome, maybe it’s of use for some fellow pilots.
I updated the RFG with an option to generate flights which consist of several legs/stopovers (up to 50).
edit: fixed a couple bugs and added a few UI enhancements, so now it should work as intended
This is really cool. Thank you!
Another update: As per request from some people the RFG now offers to select a country where the random flight starts. Please note that in some cases the airport-country-mapping doesn’t always work reliably. Blame MS/Asobo, their data is incomplete and people like me or Alex Barthel from LittleNavMap (who I have been in contact about that) need to work with different data sets cobbled together, sometimes resulting in data inconsistency or ambiguity. But I would say in the majority of the cases the RFG works pretty well. Feedback is welcome, especially if you’ve found a bug.
Thanks!
question for the xbox-dudes: are you able to download the flightplans onto the console and use them?
