hi, I looked up in the user manual and could not find how to import FSX flight plans into FS captain. In the flight dispatch tab you need to select a flight but you can't select a flight plan. Is it possible?

You use the flight planner in FSX and it will save a .PLN file. In the dispatch page, click on get plan and go to your My Documents-Flight Sim Files- select xxxx.PLN

hi, Sorry but in the dispatch page, I can't select anything except in "find flights" , nothing in "planning", the select plan button is inactive.

You have to first "find flight" then click on the flight number. After clicking on the flight number the bottom section will be active.

hi, The problem is that when I click on "find flights", none of the fsx flight plans departing from the airport selected show, only flights with numbers generated by fs captain I guess. I have no access to my fsx flight plans

The FSX flight plans don't show up as FSC flights (although that's an interesting idea.) They are used in the planning process. If you have, say, an existing FSCaptain flight (or it generates a charter, either one) from KSEA to KPDX and you select that flight as the one you want, then during the planning phase you can elect to import an FSX .PLN file for a flight from KSEA to KPDX and it will recompute time and fuel based o nthe plan rather than the direct route.
Alas, it's not quite as functional as you were hoping!
