Is this regarding the simBrief plugin? If so, we recommend setting the default flight plan format you'd like to use there. I'm not even entirely sure whether we can control what format the flight plan is generated with

Default is already set to zQFA in simbrief but it comes as LIDO in SC3

Yes, it's entirely possible to control the OFP format. You need to use the planformat field in your request to SimBrief. See: https://developers.navigraph.com/docs/simbrief/using-the-api

This would be a perfect use case for settings in both Central and the Client. The VA can determine the OFP settings for all pilots to use in Central, or make it pilot choice. Then the client has the local settings for the user account like it does currently.

Unfortunately there is no option to planformat field available @.***

@megdun Yes, it's not available in the plugin for you to use. My reply was directed towards @GenericNerd so he, or another developer, can implement it in the plugin.

This will be implemented in the next release
