Convert to .FPL to use on Garmin 430

This ends up spending a lot of time having to edit all waypoints. In an ascending square type search and rescue flight, there are more than 40 points in a route, having to rename them all to the "WPT1" format; "WPT2"; "WPT3". Both in the <identifier> field and in the <comment> field.

Yes, this would definitely save a lot of time! Is it possible for you to do this?

Of course, let's optimize this.

So the pattern would be WPTx for <identifier>? Does it have to be WPTx?
And why not WPT01, WPT02, WPT03?


Regarding <comment> there is software out there like AirNavPro that fills the GPX <description> with reasonable values that I've matched to FPL <comment>. Which software are you using?
