NATO Icelandic Air Policing Flightplans

Hi,
With the help of ChatGPT, I've just redesigned generic flight plans for the NATO mission: Icelandic Air Policing.

The flight plans are designed for 6 aircrafts, but you can use only 4 (as Belgium currently only has 4 F-16s on site). Flights are designed for 2 aircrafts at a time.

It's up to you to adapt the aircraft in the Aircrafts and FlightPlans files.

I'm also including the bgl files for the BI01->BI04 waypoints.


Here is a summary of the flights :
  • AC#1 NATO01 – Morning (Sunday to Friday)

    08:00 BIKF → 08:40 BI01 (FL350)

    08:50 BI01 → 09:30 BI02 (FL350)

    09:40 BI02 → 10:20 BIKF (FL350)
  • AC#2 NATO02 – Morning (Sunday to Friday)

    08:00 BIKF → 08:40 BI01 (FL350)

    08:50 BI01 → 09:30 BI02 (FL350)

    09:40 BI02 → 10:20 BIKF (FL350)
  • AC#3 NATO03 – Afternoon (Monday to Saturday)

    14:00 BIKF → 14:50 BI03 (FL350)

    15:00 BI03 → 15:45 BI04 (FL350)

    15:55 BI04 → 16:40 BIKF (FL350)
  • AC#4 NATO04 – Afternoon (Monday to Saturday)

    14:00 BIKF → 14:50 BI03 (FL350)

    15:00 BI03 → 15:45 BI04 (FL350)

    15:55 BI04 → 16:40 BIKF (FL350)
  • AC#5 NATO05 – Evening (Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday)

    19:00 BIKF → 19:30 BI02 (FL350)

    19:40 BI02 → 20:15 BIKF (FL350)
  • AC#6 NATO06 – Evening (Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday)

    19:00 BIKF → 19:30 BI02 (FL350)

    19:40 BI02 → 20:15 BIKF (FL350)

Thank you. May I ask how do you use Chatgpt to make flightplans?

Thanks Foufure, I'll use this and it will be easy to rotate in future deployments from other nations if I can keep up with the news.

Now has anyone got a similar FP for Baltic deployments to EEEI/EYSA? :-P

The Baltic Air Policing is in work but more complexe with more possibilities and the Enhanced Air Policing is in the queue.

Hello,

I first provided the part of the ttools readme file that deals with the format of the flightplans.txt file. This way, it could read the exact format (something I hadn't done during my first attempts, and which returned errors during compilation).

Then, I provide the airports.txt file or the list of airports (at least the waypoints, the airbases; it will retrieve the information itself).

And then I explain what I want. I tell it I want this or that aircraft, from this place to that place, via here and there. I provide the flight durations I want, or the times, and it generates the flightplans.txt file for me.
