Hi Robert and thanks for your comments. I found the BNO VOR problem. P3Dv4.5 had LKTB navaids outdated with BNO VOR at 113.9 MHz instead of 114.45 and also with wrong runways ID. Exactly the same with FSX sim. P3Dv5.3 is good to go. I resolved the BNO via installing the latest navaids installer correcting the frequency but not the runways ID. I had to use ADE (Airport Design Editor) to change runways ID.
Now, FSX and P3Dv4.5 with LKTB updated and BNO with signals as expected. Yes, LKTB Turany the same payware scenery in P3D sims. FSX has the LKTB freeware.

I am trying to create a flight plan Departure=VNKT with Arrival=VNLK. I want to use Radios not GPS.
How to do this FP?

Using the VOR, I would simply fly out following the 089 radial from KTM to a point 74 nautical miles away on the DME. Tenzing-Hillary should be right under you.

That Skyvector is not helping me. I don't think the Altitude would be 8K instead of near to 29K. I have the Plane-G telling me heading 103 to go to KIMTI and then heading 065 to VNLK.
But no Radios?

The speed and altitude numbers in the flight plan box are default values, which you change to match the aircraft you fly. Skyvector doesn't create a flight plan, it allows you to create a flight plan. Sorry, that's the best I can come up with.
