        Thank you all again for the route planner! It's incredibly useful.

        The only thing that keeps tripping me up is that our flights are usually a circle. I can click on point A for departure and then points B and C along the way but can't then click on A again to finish the flight. I tried entering points in the search box, but that appears to support only two.

        Is there a way to plan a route (flight) that starts and ends at the same point?

        Thanks again & in advance :-)

          You can use as arrival point a location
          that is nearby (e.g.4-5 km) the departure point.

            @Francfo it would be perfect. Because we always got screenshot to keep those data available.

                    Bonsoir
                    pourriez vous m'expliquer pourquoi je n'arrive pas à supprimer des étapes mises par erreur lors de la planification
                    La croix est inactive ???
                    Merci de votre retour
                    Autrement super application

                      Merci de ne pas multiplier les posts pour une même question. C’est inutile !

                      Please do not post several messages for the same question, it is useless.

                        Finally you can import your gpx file to route planner.

                        There are three ways how to do it:

                        1. Menu -> Upload KML, GPX or geoJSON file -> Upload GPX and open it in Route Planner

                        2. Open route planner -> Drag & Drop GPX file to route planner window

                        3. Open route planner -> More options... -> Import GPX

                        Enjoy and stay safe

                          This has most likely been previously answered, but is there a way to set a start and finish time in Route Planner? I've been searching the posts and comments but unable to find if this is possible. Thanks in advance.

                            @sailawayjim Hello, the duration depends on the set speed, which you can newly add.

                              As @Korina explained, you set the duration of the trip by setting the speed. Then you can choose your departure date and time by sliding the time slider along the time line.

                                @idefix37 Thanks for the reply, but unable to set slider before current date for a multiday trip.

                                Below began on 05 January.

                                  No of course, but I do not see the reason why you want to start the Route planner in the past. You could start it from your way point 6 or 7 ?
                                  Windy does not store and show past data.

                                    @idefix37 You are correct, the past is past. Old habits die hard! Thanks for opening my eyes and the quick response.

                                        While using the Vendee Globe plugin is it possible to measure the distance between the boats?
