GNS530 FPL load
 
Hi there,
during flights in Europe we often have a lot of waypoints and it is really boring and takes a lot of time to fill them one by one to GNS 530. Is there any way to use a card or flash (flash probably not) or anything and export *.fpl garmin format from PC (FliteStar)? How are you other pilots doing it? Same as me? sit in the cockpit, battery on, avionics on, fan on - low, GNS on, typing... typing... /fan on - high/ typing... typing... :ugh:

I haven't found anything useful (maybe because there isn't anything).

If you go to the Garmin website GNS530 page and locate the "freebies" box, there is a flight plan migrator available for free download.
You need to purchase a card to use with the Jeppesen Skybound software reader/writer.

Have not tried it myself though.
