A bit help with FPL

So I am trying to an overnighter with IberoJet A359 from LEBL–>MHPR. The problem is that this airport seems to be new or have been added pre-scenery editing and has no available procedures. I have Navigraph sub and have the appropriate documentation on the STAR and APP. I just dont know how to put them in my FPL as LAT/LON coordinates. I would appreciate any help.

I am doing TNT1A STAR Arrival and RNP35 APP


Are the waypoints on the map on IF ?
Dublin the same on the new runway to.
Is waypoint LIBIS on the map on IF ?

Nope its plain

Yeah unfortunately we have to wait for a Navigation update. You can vector yourself into the Runway that’s what I usually do.

Or select LEPAX and vector from there

Yeah but the arrival is made for it to guide thorugh the mountains as Tegucigulpa in Honduras is a mountainous area which is why I need it

Oh I see now yeah it’s frustrating that does my head in.

But isnt there a fpl converter or some sort of thing thay we can do them to GPS coordinates?

If its not possible then I may have to do this flight another day…

I think there is but not sure what it’s called someone here can tell you I’ll check I remember someone was saying it to me when I was asking about dublins new runway

I think this is it I’m not the best on this stuff but this might help

Can you tell me what you are actually looking for? If you want to use those waypoints you can add them individually to your flight plan on simbrief instead of applying STAR so you can add waypoints for the approach. The only problems that can occur is if the waypoints have already been present on the game but with older airac data their GPS coordinates can drift otherwise it should work perfectly.

All you have to do is type those wpt from the chart to simbrief as individually and you can import them like normally. Considering based on the photo the waypoints doesn’t exist in IF you don’t have to worry about waypoints getting drifted.

Hi, CMIIW but if you’re asking for a TNT1A STAR Arrival and RNP35 APP that goes thru all the PR05 down to RWY 35 I just did it with Simbrief:

Albeit in IF there were no approaches available, I’ve also checked with Flightaware and they seem to take on the same wpt as given above.
The wpt does have terrain avoidance I think, as it has altitude infos all the way from before TOD into several wpt before the approach. All you gotta do is to input altitude for RWY35 manually, about 2002 feet if I remember correctly?

Hope that helps?

But the approach is missing? Since you’ve add Star instead of adding those waypoints individually you still have those waypoints missing. Never mind I realised now the end waypoint is for missed approach.

Cool! Here’s some further docs while you’re at it, I think you’ll only need the missing PR501 and RWY 35 coordinates. Use IF Flightplan tools to make a mini fpl addition and you’re probably good to go! :blush:

What I meant to say is you can also add those waypoints like individually instead of using STAR on simbrief.

There you go! :partying_face: I used the formal document as above and input the same coordinates given.

Just Add the fpl below after you’ve input into IF the one from Simbrief:
MHPR Final APPR ADD.fpl (963 Bytes)

All else are good to go I think, the STAR from Simbrief already guides your minimal altitudes throughout the mountains and this last additional fpl file acts as the final approach for you. You now have the final segments PR501 and RWY 35 RNP, hope this helps!

In addition to what CaptJJ said, these coordinates might seem confusing. But here is how you can add the coordinates when making a .fpl file with IF flightplan tools. For example: PR502 in the picture above has coordinates 141253.25N, 0873523.13W. So, in the Waypoint box you’ll click the button “Input Lat/Long as DMS” and add the coordinates as follows: in the first group of three boxes you’ll always add latitude. In the case of N, the value will go as it is, but in the case of south, you’ll need to put a negative sign in the first box. Since it’s N, the value will be “14” in the first box, “12” in the second, and “53.35” in the third. No need to put N or S. The boxes only accept numeric values, and the +/- sign at the start indicates whether it’s N/S.

Now, in the remaining group boxes below, we’ll add the longitude of the waypoint. Here the value will go as it is if its E (East) and -ve of the value in the starting box in the case of W (West). Since we’ve W the value will be inserted as follows: “-087” in the first, “35” in the second box and “23.13” in the third box.

However, as @CaptJJ said, SimBrief does the job when you flight plan. So, you might not need to prepare an .fpl file manually for the approach, as it is time-consuming. Still, if you like, you can prepare and store it. I always prefer storing it because Simbrief doesn’t adds the correct altitude in the procedures as they’re documented officially. So, preparing and keeping an .fpl file will save your time looking for charts.

Yes but I still dont know how to write them in? I have simbrief and I am just writing the SID + full route waypoints manually + STAR and then quit the app. Cause if Simbrief is able to import them in then how do I it?
