SimBrief OFP Generation

Dispatch can now generate a SimBrief flight plan instead of only importing one you built yourself beforehand. Ticking "Generate via SimBrief" when confirming a booking opens SimBrief in your browser with the flight pre-filled; the generated route, altitude, runways, alternate, and fuel breakdown are pulled back into the booking automatically once ready. Requires a SimBrief username saved in your vAOMS profile settings. The existing "Load SimBrief OFP" button is unchanged for pilots who prefer to plan in SimBrief first.

Extended Dispatch Form

The pre-booking briefing panel now covers the full dispatch, not just network and time: route, cruise altitude, cost index, payload (passengers, hold luggage, cargo), and SimBrief options — Navlog, ETOPS, Stepclimbs, TLR, NOTAMs, FIR NOTAMs, plus taxi out/in, extra fuel, contingency, reserve, alternates, and units. Settings can be saved as your default for future dispatches.

Payload & Zero Fuel Weight

Passenger, luggage, and cargo figures are generated automatically when left blank, and each can be regenerated individually. A running ZFW readout is shown while editing a dispatch, with a warning when the payload exceeds the aircraft's maximum zero fuel weight.

Network Prefile

Once a dispatch is released on VATSIM or IVAO, a "Prefile on Network" button opens the network's own flight plan form in your browser with the flight details already filled in.
