conversion from .kml to .pln or .flt files
#7
Hi @Jaro,

your BARBADOS.FLT can be opened with a text editor. It is clear text but many variables like aircarft and engine parameters, velocities along aircraft axis and many other things are not related to the main purpose of RouteConverter: To work with tracks and routes

Coordinate informations are just departure, destination and pre-planned waypoints:
Code:
[ATC_ActiveFlightPlan.0]
title=Grantley Adams Intl to Punta Cana Intl
description=Grantley Adams Intl to Punta Cana Intl
type=VFR
routetype=0
cruising_altitude=8500
departure_id=TBPB, N13° 4.48', W59° 29.53', +000164.50
departure_position=
destination_id=MDPC, N18° 34.25', W68° 21.97', +000040.75
departure_name=Grantley Adams Intl
destination_name=Punta Cana Intl
waypoint.0=, TBPB, , TBPB, A, N13° 4.48', W59° 29.53', +000164.50, , , , , , NONE, 0, 0, -1, 0, 0, +
waypoint.1=, , , TIMECRUIS, U, N15° 18.73', W62° 58.71', +008500.00, , , , , , NONE, 0, 0, -1, 0, 0, +
waypoint.2=, , , TIMEDSCNT, U, N16° 24.65', W64° 44.93', +008500.00, , , , , , NONE, 0, 0, -1, 0, 0, +
waypoint.3=, MDPC, , MDPC, A, N18° 34.25', W68° 21.97', +000050.00, , , , , , NONE, 0, 0, -1, 0, 0, +

Your file TBPBMDPC_MFS_16Mar21.pln can be opened with a text editor as well.
This file contains more coordinates. Departure airport, Intersections/ATC waypoints, destination airport:
Code:
<DepartureID>TBPB</DepartureID>
        <DepartureLLA>N13° 4' 29.00",W59° 29' 32.00",+000169.00</DepartureLLA>
        <DestinationID>MDPC</DestinationID>
        <DestinationLLA>N18° 34' 14.81",W68° 21' 58.27",+000047.00</DestinationLLA>
        <Descr>TBPB to MDPC created by SimBrief</Descr>
        <DepartureName>Grantley Adams Intl</DepartureName>

            <WorldPosition>N13° 4' 29.00",W59° 29' 32.00",+000169.00</WorldPosition>
            <RunwayNumberFP>9</RunwayNumberFP>
            <ICAO>
                <ICAOIdent>TBPB</ICAOIdent>
            </ICAO>
        </ATCWaypoint>
        <ATCWaypoint id="ETBIG">
            <ATCWaypointType>Intersection</ATCWaypointType>
            <WorldPosition>N13° 19' 35.00",W60° 3' 3.00",+023900.00</WorldPosition>
            <ICAO>
                <ICAORegion>TT</ICAORegion>
                <ICAOIdent>ETBIG</ICAOIdent>

A big plus: Plain text. So there is a chance to extract coordinates from your files.
BUT you requested to convert a *.kml file into .flt and/or *.pln formats.

Let's see what @Christian thinks about this...
