So, I got a little sick and tired of AFCADs, my eyes are starting to not like them lol and decided to write some flightplans of a non-military nature. I just wanted to know if the following code would work correctly as it's a mix:
AC#3,N620FE,60%,WEEK,IFR,1/11:00:00,1/12:00:00,360,F,19,RJBB,1/12:19:00,2/08:30:00,350,F,18,KMEM,2/10:00:00,2/12:00:00,360,F,19,RJBB,2/12:19:00,3/08:30:00,350,F,18,KMEM,3/10:00:00,3/12:00:00,360,F,19,RJBB,3/12:19:00,4/08:30:00,350,F,18,KMEM,4/10:00:00,4/12:00:00,360,F,19,RJBB,4/12:19:00,5/08:30:00,350,F,18,KMEM
AC#4,N578FE,60%,24HR,IFR,01:00:00,04:00:00,360,F,1432,KJFK,07:22:00,10:17:00,350,F,1431,KMEM

This:
AC#4,N578FE,60%,24HR,IFR,01:00:00
Needs to be this:
AC#4,N578FE,60%,24HR,IFR,0/1:00:00

No it dosen't, because it's a 24HR flightplan so it's just xx:xx:xx, but it would need a 2nd leg i thought.

Why not use Rips utiiity RPP_FPGen_v1.0 and let it do the work for you

There will be more legs. I'm using 24hr because it's set flightplans for FedEx (I still can't believe FedEx wasn't included in UT after all these years
)
I just wanted to know if the "WEEK" and "24HR" variables could be used together

Hey Jumpshot,
Why not download the WOAI pack? It's upto there usual high
standard and will save you a heap of time.

The answer to that question is fairly simple. Since the repetition time indicators relate to different flightplans which in turn relate to different aircraft, there's no conflict.
Expanding on that, even IF the beginning of the two lines was as follows:
AC#3,N620FE,60%,WEEK,IFR,...
AC#3,N620FE,60%,24HR,IFR,...
these lines actually refer to 2 separate and distinct aircraft which just happen to be using the same texture and flight data (the AC# part which is the link to the aircraft.txt file and that, in turn points to the aircraft.cfg files/data) and are coincidentally using the same flight identifier (the N620FE part - something only the ATC cares about). Both aircraft would fly with no problem.
The only one who might notice is you/the user if both aircraft are in the same ATC area at the same time that you are.
At least that's my understanding.

Because I just spent 3 days free time researching ~1000 flightplans from the past week lol

Yea, that's what I figured I just wanted to make sure. Thanks!!
