Hello everyone

I just tested the SkyDemon web and was very happy with the possibilities and especially with the very easy to use user interface. I would love to start using it on a regular basis (web or plan doesn’t matter), but I have one problem: there is no possibility to export the route to the Garmin *.fpl format. All the new aviation GPS like our GPS695 support only this format to read/write flight plans from SD card, and GPX is not supported.

This sadly makes the Skydemon useless for our group of pilots at the moment. Is there any chance that Skydemon will support the FPL format in near future?

Thanks and greetings from Switzerland

Ueli

I guys,

i have bought a garmin 795, i have the same problem, skydemon save file only as .gpx and I need to export in .fpl for my 795. I tried to setup skydemon on device connectivity option as Garmin handled device to send directly from skydemon the flightplan into device but the software doesn’t run, it say device not connected at universal serial bus … The device is correctly connected. So can you help me ?

is possible converted from gpx to fpl , or do you know if exist a driver to connect skydemon at serial bus.

I used gpsbabel and flightplan.exe to convert the file gpx but the garmin doesn’t work whit this .fpl , I think ‘cause thet file are not compatibility with the standard of garmin.

Regards and thanks
GO
