From YAACARS 2.1 on you now can suspend a flight, exit your sim, close YAACARS and shutdown your computer.

The flight will stay "flying" within FTW.

====== Resume a flight that was proper suspended by the user ======

**Note that the procedure with CTDs is explained in the FAQ section!**

===== from a saved situation =====
To resume your flight that you have proper suspended, you can **load the last position of your plane** (this can be done in X-Plane with saving and loading "situations"), get the flightplan with YAACARS and click "start flight" like you usually do.
===== from a nearby airport =====
If you don't have the option to continue flying from where you were when suspending the flight (because not supported by the sim or a specific plane model - or even because your sim crashed and you had to time to save the situation), you still have the **option to pick any airport nearby your last location** and continue your flight from there. YAACARS will provide the fuel that's left to refuel your plane in the sim and you start your flight as usual.
===== Aircraft List =====
List of compatible planes for resuming mid-flight from any kind of "save":
  * X-Plane= "Saved Situation" from X-Plane
  * Custom= "Custom Save" from the Plane Plugin
  * none= "Cold and Dark" required (from nearby airport)

^ Plane ^ X-Plane ^ FSx ^ P3D ^
| Carenado Saab 340 | X-Plane | | |
| JRollon CRJ200 | **none** | | |
| Flight Factor A320 | Custom | | |

====== Find your last known location ======
Here are some ways to find your last known location:
===== FTW-Sim ======
You can have a look at the "Live Flugverfolgung" inside of FTW to see you last position.

===== YAACARS-LiveMap =====
You can see your last known location on the [[http://www.ftw-sim.de/yaacars/livemap/|YAACARS LiveMap]] after the flightplan has been loaded into YAACARS from the FTW site.

The X marks your last known location; the plane is your current position

====== NOTAMs ======

//Please remember://
  * that you **have to reach at least the 100% mark of flown miles and time** to be able to bill the flight in FTW, so whereever you continue your flight from, make your you collect the miles/times needed to log the flight!
  * that **airlines might claim back their planes after some hours**, so it's never a good idea to suspend a "job market" job without asking the airline dispatcher for permission first!

If you want to **start over completely from scratch** and redo the full flight again, you can "reset flight" data and start from the original departure again!
