LOL! Now, when clicking the "File flight plan and agree to terms above" I get an IE error:

The website cannot display the page........HTTP 500

Hmmm...no joy:

The website cannot display the page
HTTP 500
Most likely causes:
The website is under maintenance.
The website has a programming error.

A few details:
I am not manually entering dep/arv airport but loading an FS9 flight plan.
The info is correct when I go to page 2.
I am using a "new lease" (unflown) C-47.

Vic - have you tried without uploading flight plan? If it works without the FP then please attach your flight plan here so I can test.

Tom, it worked fine if I do not use the flight plan and simply enter my departure and arrival codes.

Can't attach the PLN as "The extension pln is not allowed". I tried email and PM...but can't see how to attach a file in either one?

[flightplan]
title=PANC to PAPH
description=PANC, PAPH
type=IFR
routetype=1
cruising_altitude=6500
departure_id=PANC, N61* 10.46', W149* 59.78', +000150.92
departure_position=GATE R 14
destination_id=PAPH, N56* 57.57', W158* 37.91', +000088.58
departure_name=Stevens Anchorage Intl
destination_name=Port Heiden
waypoint.0=PANC, A, N61* 10.46', W149* 59.78', +000150.92,
waypoint.1=ENA, V, N60* 36.88', W151* 11.71', +000000.00,
waypoint.2=AKN, V, N58* 43.48', W156* 45.13', +000000.00,
waypoint.3=PDN, N, N56* 57.24', W158* 38.93', +000000.00,
waypoint.4=PAPH, A, N56* 57.57', W158* 37.91', +000088.58,

I'm flying the flight now so, when I'm done, I'll try another (if my V$ can stand it :wink: ). What did you find?
Or would you prefer I try to load the same flight plan, Tom?

I found that the "layout" of the flight plan file was different than the other example I used when the programming was originally done. I adjutsed the program to read the format your file is in too.

How or what program did you use to generate this flight plan? Was it FS9 or some other program?

I used FSNavigator to generate the flight plan and then exported it to FS9. This is how I generate 99.9% of my FP's.

Just to be sure...I created the FP with FSN...but exported it to FS9 as a PLN file and that PLN file is what I tried to upload to the GA div. planner. Does FSN export a file to FS9 (PLN) differently from one created with FS9? Just curious on this bit.

Thank you Tom! Apparently I'm the last dinosaur (who has been to the GA division) to still use FSN? LOL! I have never found a suitable replacement...I like that it is run as a "module" (as opposed to having a seperate program open?). If it would update terminal procedures (SIDS/STARS) from Navigraph, and import flight plans from other sources (although not nearly as important), I would never look for a replacement. Sadly, those are the things that it will not do.
