Old Flight Plans

I have scores of what appear to be flight plans from a previous iteration of FSX. They're .PLN files. If they are, in fact, flight plans, how can I enter them. I've tried transferring to Documents but FSX doesn't appear to read them.

Where do you have these 'scores' then? How did you try to 'transfer' them to Documents? In Win 'Explorer' you are able to copy and paste any file (not System) from and to whatever destination incl.: /Documents/Flight Simulator X Files Do you see them in Win Explorer/Documents/Flight Simulator X Files? So in FSX running when you press: [Flights] - [Flightplanner] - [Load] do you see them in the selection screen? If not then they're not valid FSX.PLN files.

If not then they're not valid FSX.PLN files.

But don't delete them, since they might serve another purpose, perhaps for lessons or for...

I saved them on a previous hard drive in a separate folder. I've tried transferring them into My Documents\Flight Sim X Files.

And no, Inuss, I never delete anything that might be useful sometime.

Thank you, but they're now recognised by FSX. I don't know what changed but suddenly they're fine.
