GFP format
The Garmin flight plan format is used to import flight planes into the Garmin GTN GPS serial.If a waypoint in the GFP file is ambiguous or cannot be found by the loaded database, it will be marked as “LOCKED” in the Garmin GPS. When importing to Garmin, click “Save”, then “EDIT” and delete the locked waypoint.

FPL and GPX format
This format is used by   https://skyvector.com  free flight planning Tool. You can export  created flight plans as FPL or GPX format. The FPL and GPX format do not contain information about the names of airways. You get a straight path with all waypoints instead . You can easily put it back into  airways within the Garmin GPS

PLN format
This format is used by flight simulator FSX and P3D. (Only the newer Xml format is supported by the present software. It supports airway names and you will get a full converted flight plan.

Please take in account that the Garmin known waypoints are depending from the loaded database !
