Convert to .FPL to use on Garmin 430

Quote:What exactly does than mean? That the <identifier> of <waypoints> is limited to 5 characters?
yes.

Yesterday I did a test with a file generated by Routeconverter in flight. I did not succeed. The Garmin 430 could not understand some information from the <waypoint>, so I went back to the codes to see what might be different from a .FPL that worked. I noticed that in the .FPL files that were successful, the <comment> field is EMPTY. thus:
<Comment> </ comment>

I realized that Routeconverter did not allow me to create waypoints without the <comment> field, because when I deleted the information, it was automatically generated "User, Waypoint". So this can be a path. Remove the <comment>



I also noticed that the <waypoints> described as Airport have <elevation> information in the .FPL files that were successful when used in Garmin. On the contrary, the file that tested .FPL generated by Routeconverter does not have this information in the codes. I do not know if this is a required item, though that's what I realized.
