Unable to make it work in Windows 10. Always getting "Fsbuild2 MFC Application" has stopped working. Support from developer is just a trace of what people used to be proud of years ago. Not satisfied at all with the product.

Simply a must for the serious Flightsimmer. perfect calculation once you have a performance file for a aircraft. It blends pefect with ISGSIM Avionics. Thank you for bringing joy back to the Flightsim World!. T. Headlam

With FS Navigator unavailable, I was looking for a similar product to support my complex simulation. FSBUILD can do indeed a lot, but its handling is fairly complicated in some cases and much less inituitive than older FSNAV. It took me a while, for example to export the flightplan - it works, but you simpy need to get under the skin of the program. this is why you see in the (well supported) forum, why people have often similar problems. For what it does, I find it overpriced and is overcomplicated where it doesnt need to be.

Having recently purchased the Level D 767 I needed to get a serious Flight Planning tool. Firstly I tried evaluation version of FS Navigator and found it's user interface "user hostile" Downloading and starting to use FS Build things looked more promising other than I am a "map" kind of person and likes to look at the route I intend to fly. The graphics on my Commorode 64 two decades ago where better. Does it do flight planning - well YES, however if you are used to looking at a map or enjoy using a map give this one a wide berth it's not for you.

I recently purchased a very expensive aircraft add-on, and wanted a flight planner that was very professional. I have been using other flight planner software and online, but nothing beats FSBUILD. Initially I thought this was a waste of money, but within a few minutes, it has suddenly grown on me. I didn't realise when purchasing that it creates a navlog (a 'real-life' looking flight plan)! I understood that it can import winds aloft, so I also decided to purchase ActiveSky v6. FSbuild will import the winds from ActiveSky, work out the wind component on each leg, and adjust fuel accordingly! I worked out that I probably do around 100 flights per year, and this works out at around 20 pence (£0.20 pound sterling) a flight. You would be a fool not to invest in FSbuild.

This program is a great flight planner that can generate a large number of plans between well known airports. It can also convert them into formats suitable for a range of FS add-ons and it can also collect flight plans from various websites. It is very useful in generating and categorising large numbers of flight plans along with various details like altitudes and fuel planning. Its main drawbacks are: a bad looking map, lacking info on adjacent navigational info, no ILS or bearing information (even though SID and STARS are included) and it ignores smaller airports and landing strips. I am hoping that FSBUILD can be made to include the above in the future, making it a truly master planner.

2005-09-21

Nothing makes flight planning easier than Ernie's FSBUILD. From SID/STARs and NAT tracks to fuel planning FSBUILD is always reliable and accurate. hands down the best flight planning tool available today and Ernie always provides excellent support.

2005-08-09

Ich muss zwar gestehen, dass ich meine Flugrouten nicht mit diesem Tool mache. Dazu benutze ich den Flightsim Commander. Aber danach die Konvertierung zu den Aircraft Addons ist absolut top. Oft erstelle ich mal einen ersten Entwurf mit dem FSC und danach bearbeite ich es mit dem FSBuild. Liegt daran, dass man im FSC besser in der Karte navigieren kann als im FSBuild.

2005-06-08

Well, it can definitely do a lot. But I think this program is only for the very dedicated, hardcore FS addict. Not user friendly. Not intuitive. Requires way too much configuration. I am still learning it, so I am probably a bit frustrated over it's complexity. If you have FS Navigator, take a long hard look at whether you need FSBuild. I will take FS Navigator over FSBuild any day.

2004-09-23

FSBuild is undoubtably the best planner I have ever used. I fly Delta virtual every day of the week, 3 or 4 flights per day and FSBuild is my lifeline. I coulnd't go a day without it. Every day...Every flight. Thanks Ernie!!!
