So every time I want to do an IFR plan, as soon as I pull up my flight planner, FS9 freezes. Doesn't matter the aircraft. I could've sworn this has been an issue for others and it was quickly resolved, but for the life of me I can't remember what to do. I ask you fine people for your help. Thanks everyone. Kindest regards, Jeremy

I looked around and discovered that in most cases the problem you are experiencing is caused by either a bad panel or gauge or some bad scenery.
If it use to work and you added something than that is what is causing your problem.
One suggestion would be to use system restore and go back to a date when it use to work but be warned if you have added anything from the restore date to the current date it will be lost.
The other option is to uninstall and reinstall FS9. Then make changes one at a time and check after wards to make sure everything is still working. I know this is a big pain in the REAR but it is the only way to find out what caused your problem.

Dear Birdman,

I ran into this problem when I DL a scenery that was old, it corrupted my system, I had to do a re-install and then
I got rid of this bogus scenery. Sometimes you just don'nt know what this file or others may do to your system.
