I’m encountering an issue on the PS5: I want to transfer a route I’ve created from the EFB (via Simbrief) to the flight computer. On the "INIT" page of the flight computer, the "CPNY F-PLAN REQUEST" field is constantly greyed out—it cannot be selected. As a result, my flight plan isn't being loaded into the flight computer. Am I doing something wrong, or is there a bug?

The CPNY F-PLAN REQUEST field being grey usually means the FMC does not currently see a company route to request. In the EFB, confirm the SimBrief OFP has actually been imported/generated, not just entered, then use the EFB option to send/import the route to the FMC. Also check you are using the same SimBrief pilot ID and that the route has finished processing. If it remains grey after that, report it as a possible bug with your exact steps.

In that case, it is likely a bug. The complete, generated flight plan cannot be sent from the EFB to the FMC using the dedicated button. The flight plan is intended to be loaded into the FMC via the "CPNY F-PLAN REQUEST" option on the "INIT" page—however, this does not work, as the button remains greyed out. I have discovered a workaround: you can also access "CPNY F-PLAN REQUEST" via the "SEC INDEX" page. In that location, the button appears in white, allowing you to load the flight plan from the EFB by selecting "INSERT."
