SimBrief and flight plans

HeavyPro can read your SimBrief plan. Besides showing your flight, it uses the planned weight when the sim does not report one, so a heavy departure really feels heavy.

Connect SimBrief

1. Open Plan & response.
2. Enter your SimBrief Pilot ID or username and press Connect / Verify.
3. Press Refresh whenever you made a new plan.

HeavyPro shows departure, arrival, aircraft type and registration, take-off and zero-fuel weight, payload, fuel, cruise altitude, route, duration and flight number. The last good plan is kept for the next start. A wrong ID shows SimBrief's own message, so you know what to fix.

Import a flight plan

Import flight plan… reads:

• an MSFS .pln file,
• an Airbus .flp file (Aerosoft, Fenix, iniBuilds),
• a saved SimBrief OFP (.json or .xml).

Or press Use as flight plan to take SimBrief's own MSFS plan for your flight. Replace or remove it any time.

Note: your SimBrief ID and plan stay on your PC. HeavyPro only talks to SimBrief to fetch your latest plan.
