Airport and waypoint Information

[mehmet4534]

Hi,
In that application, how do you get airport and waypoint informations? It uses any web service or should I insert them manually ?

Hi, I used an AIRAC cycle from Navigraph, due to licensing reasons I can't upload the database with the AIRAC (that contains all the airports, waypoints, etc..) already loaded. When I created the application I also created a tool to import the AIRAC cycle into the application, but it is not published, if you are interested I can give you the code of the tool, but bear in mind that flight-planner was a project I did 4 years ago and it's not maintained at all

Actually, I need a library to genereate flight plan. How do you create flight plan? Do you use any web service? If you use any service, is there any free version? Can you help me abou t them?
Additionally, Could you inform me about what your AIRAC cycle tool makes?

I didn't use any web service or library related to flight plans, in the application the user can enter a flight plan in the form:

[DEPARTURE ICAO] [SID] ... [AIRWAY or DCT] [INTERSECTION or NAVAID (except ILS and ILSD)] ... [STAR] [ARRIVAL ICAO]

and then the app will check whether the route introduced is valid or not, based on all the information it has (imported from AIRAC cycle 1502, in my case).

If you are looking for something to generate a flight plan automatically you can check https://www.simbrief.com/home/, it has an API too.

Hello sir. I found this project to be damn interesting. I am new to building Java applications. I want to know how to run this project in an IDE. Since there are so many files in the Vuelos folder, I don't know which java file must be executed. Please help!
