Importing flightplan when starting on the runway

[Norwenkel]

Is it correct that importing a flightplan when starting on the runway is not possible? The „copy f pln request“ button is not functioning.

Same problem here! Haven't figured out why/workaround.

I think this was presented in the pre-launch video, you cannot load the f-plan on the runway, you also can't in real life if plane is ready for take off - you need to be engines off and then you can.

I got it to work of you put in Company Route or the to/from section. 
i think its Not very usefull to only be able to load a flight plan when Engines Not running, even if so in the real plane

What do you mean exactly? So you filed a simbrief fp say kbos-kord and then did what in the mcdu? Added kbos/kord in to/from and it loaded the complete fp? Need to try that then. Seldom have time to start cold and dark and thus need to import the fp with engines running, being real or not. For me a qol topic…

Yes that worked for me..

Also you need to load it in the efb!

So that did not work when I just tried. I mean, yes I can import the fp manually that way. but not do an import from simbrief... will try again and yes, OFP was loaded into EFB.

besides, when entering data using my keyboard, the MCDU hang up and could not be restored, but that seems to be one of the WASM crashes reported elsewhere
