Most of the real world flight (at least in the third world countries) fly by VOR station to station , every pilot or company have to give every flight plan to the all VOR station and center flight controls , this could take a while with a hand map and make tidious calculation of every digree

I think I may misunderstand what you're asking, but I'll try to answer.

The course you need to fly is listed in the Nav Log.  It also shows assigned altitude, airspeed, time of travel, VOR frequencies.

The Nav Log can be viewed by either clicking the button on the bottom of the screenshot you posted, or brought up while in flight.  The Nav Log automatically updates during flight so you always know what part of the flight you're on.

In game SHIFT + F10 > Navigation Log.

It's also in the flight planner.

I know all about multidirectional  frequencys VOR /DME my question is this , I hate to follow the same routes all the time, (I know by memory the frequencys and what degree I do have to set my CRS knob)but what about other routes Compass ?Do I have to make an entire calculation before every new destination in every new  flight?(Anoying and tidious)of every angle/degree of the VOR' CRS? , My problem is,Im tired to use a  jeppessen chart when the game assing me a new route,Is there a diferent way,..after all is just a game not a real flight ,can it be more easier

(I know that the "MAP" gives me all frequencies in every VOR station and the Jeppesesn Chart aswell though, is just every degree angle wich I found quite difficult)  

I got it ,Thanks Guys ,Darm I bet FS9 has it too  :-/ I being trying this (MANUALY) wich I found tidious ( If like I were a real pilot  ;D) as the old way ,with that Looong piece of papper that's why I quit a little bits my VOR flights



Thanks Anxyous & mroseland

Cheers

I've filed dozens of VOR ot VOR flight plans and never really bothered with calculating the exact radial. ATC will give you the heading they want you to fly, and even if they just tell you to "resume own navigation" ..  All you do is fly TO the VOR, cross over it and then fly TO the next VOR.  Just spin the OBS until the CDI centers and then fly that heading. You'll always be correcting for wind anyway, so there's no need to calculate it exactly.

If it's a published airway that you MUST follow exactly, that radial will be shown on the chart.

well  ::) you know , I dont have the OBS Knob at my hand and found more easy to have the correct OBS  before the flight ,That's the way I saw IRL I will try your procedure Brett , but Just to open that big paper (Like  a news paper) makes me  :P, and I know that should be the correct way , But Im not a real pilot, As you are my friend (Nice shots I saw them all in real aviation BTW) , I don't have even a piece of a real plane
