A really good site that offers links to needed charts as well as accurated and descriptive routes can be found at www.simroutes.com

It is very good for domestic (US) flights. Anyone out there knows a similar lynk that could help us to plan international (corss-atlantic) routes? I have FSbuild and lets just say that it works ok, but not very acurate.
Cheers

A great site is www.sportys.com - go to the pilot center and click on charts - you have to buy them though, but you can get charts from all over the world and then you can plan your own routes

Isidoro, for the international routes, you would want to use the NAT tracks for the atlantic crossings - if you need a link for those let me know. They change daily - I believe that DVA has a link for it in the pilot center too

1) You can go to Red One Aviation http://icarus.red1aviation.com/ for free real world domestic and international routes actually flown. It pumps out all departures and arrivals for a USA airport. Enter 3 letter for domestic flights and 4 letters for international. I use it all the time.
2) Another great source is AVSIM forums http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=153 There are a couple of volunteers having access to commercial dispatch systems that will email you a real world flight plan. Normally requires 2 - 3 hours for them to get back to you.

Be warned on international flight with red one. A lot of times they only list the flight route once its in the US. So flying Paris to Atlanta you would only get a small bit of Europe and then the complete route from JFK area to ATL. If your going from the US to an overseas destination red one will list the complete flight route.
Cheers,
Andrew
