You need a nav/gps switch or a nav and a gps on your pannel. If you haven't such a thing on your pannel you need to add it in pannel.cfg
For example like that:
[Window00]
...
gauge44=737-400!Nav GPS Switch, 870, 525, 20
...
wheras 870 and 525 is the X/Y position in pixel and the 20 is somehow connected to the size,
the 44 you have to replace with the gauge counteing that you have on your pannel. (the last gauge listet +1)
1) cretae a flight plan with fs9 (fs9 forces you to you have to save it)
2) get clerance fo rthe flightplan from atc (hmm probabily works without that also)
3) once in the air, and cleared for own navigation..
switch on the autopilot (differs from pannel to pannel on mine it is the cmd button)
switch on the altitude hold button. (set the crusing altitude first, the altitude is fix)
and then it depends on your pannel. If you have added the sitch above which is just a toggle switch:
switch that switch to gps (i belive right) and switch on the nav button.
if you have a pannel with a nav and a gps button. just press the gps button.
alternative:
download the fs moving map or fs naviagtor. I am not sure which it was, used it in the past and for online fliying,
there you can programm an own fs9 independ flightplane usually even with sid and star (take off path and approach path)
when i am not wrong you then need to keep the autopilot on nav (not gps) and the fs navigator feeds the autopilot with the right data from
the fs navigator flightplan during the whole flight.
This is great for online flying but lesgreat when you want to have the fs9 atc because the fs9 atc guides/vectors you on the fs9 flightplane
by vector.
