I think I have some floating around somewhere. I can check when I get home, if I ever get home today.

Another idea you could try is to download the C-5 package that has the old Wright-Pat C-5s in it, might be one of the Great Lakes ANG packs, can't remember off the top of my head.

You could simply swap out those C-5 aircraft for the C-17s.

Hi Mike, I'm fairly new to this flightsim game and sorry to say just not clued up enough in attempting to converting a C5 plan to a flightplan bgl so I hope you can help.
Cheers

It's actually really simple to do, that's why i'm coping :D

you'll need a program called Ttools. Put the bgl file in the same folder, open Ttools & select the bgl on the right hand side & click decompile. Close Ttools & open the text document labelled Aircraft_xxxx. You'll see a load of aircraft on it, simply copy & paste the aircraft you want from the aircraft cfg folder into the aircraft_xxxx text in place of the ones you don't want. Save it, re-open Ttools & this time click on the left hand side (should be 3 files) & press compile. Then place the bgl into the scenery/world/scenery folder. Job done. Hope this helps

The flightplans you would be looking for are in the East Coast C-5 package, and Mark Heimer has done five of the current nine C-17s, and those are available on his website http://marksfsrepaints.jimdo.com/

Like Dan says, it is fairly easy to manipulate plans once you get used to using Ttools (By Lee Swordy btw).....just a little practice and a good read of the instructions :D
