This is probably a question for the mission section, but I will attempt to answer.

 

Follow normal procedures to load an ABRIS flight plan as described in the manual - Sec. 3-68. From the ABRIS Menu Screen (you will see "MENU" in upper left hand corner of ABRIS when you are on the correct screen). It is the default screen. Select PLAN (takes you to PLAN Sub-menu), Select SELECT (drop down menu pops up), scroll to LOAD and select it (takes you to a list of mission route plans - if there are plans saved in the mission database), select LOAD after you have scrolled to the appropriate plan, and finally, select ACTIVE (to make the plan the active plan in the ABRIS).

 

This is one of the Ka-50's lesser used features that will hopefully be exploited by mission designers in the future.

do note that the Ap will not follow the flight plan from the ABRIS.

You should be able to extract co-ordinates from the ABRIS and manually feed them into the PVI though, right?

You can only have multiple ABRIS plans in the same mission. If you save a mission plan or if the mission designer saves an alternate ABRIS plan in mission A, it will only be available in mission A, not B.

 

If you rework the control in the options you can make the PVI controlled via the numpad area and it's surprising how fast and confidently you can enter 6 waypoints from the ABRIS Plan page into the PVI by hand. The PVI has an 'edit while you fly' mode for the simple reason that it is expected that your real route will need more than 6 points all told.

yes, hit the FPL button after activating the flight plan, it will show all lat/long coordinates for entering into the PVi. I've not seen it do an auto change of the WPs though when doing this and I had to manually change WP numbers to follow a plan.
