More than a year since I shared my idea, I have managed to generate a flight plan SITA format using a program called PFPX for FSX.
It can do more than what some airlines can afford and it's about 160 USD commercial but simulation purposes only.... Not for long I can guarantee you.... When this string started this software did not exist and now the author is getting 90USD per licence......non commercial.
I also managed to recreate a template Identical to SiTA Graphlite system format which the airline I work for uses.
I can send winds aloft straight to the 777 PMDG which is what ACARs does in real life. (some airlines are yet to use this by the way)
It is capable of doing a re-planning and ETOPS, with regards to fuel planning you can adopt even your CAAs fuel policy.... To the last kg of fuel. ICAO/FAA or EU ops
Brilliant tools....
In my flying career, I have seen a lot of innovations and this one in my opinion will not be difficult at all but very profitable.

Just to name a few..... The second one is free and the performance databases are so accurate.
Those who feel they can add value, kindly PM and let's pick up from where we left.
Some kind of interface for virtual pilots to use this existing system to collect a PDF computer flight plan and take off performance by a few clicks..... Need some insight on that.
Kind regards
