I want to fly a continuation flight plan (for example, the Kangaroo Routes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kangaroo_Route), but cannot find a way to do so in the default FSX flight planner. Is it possible at all? Or do I need to use two separate flight plans?

If the engine doesn't start, check the master switch. True story.

In the flight planner select the beginning and end airports and then just drag the flight path to any waypoints you'd like to use along the way. I'm not sure if this is what you were asking or not Undecided

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

I've tried that before, but it doesn't work; FSX treats it like a VOR or NDB. I want to have a flightplan with stopovers.

I don't think the actual pilots would use one giant route, they probably, from what I understand, do one route at a time through the FMS. Yes, in flight simulator it would be easier to do one big route, but there is no way other than treating each airport as a waypoint.

You cannot make a FS flight plans with stop-overs.

Simple as that.

Solution? Make multiple flight plans.

There is no such a thing as overkill. Only unworthy targets.
