Mission files

Save the plan to a file to keep it. Load the file later, for example to fly the same circuit again at the field. In Mission Planner, these are Save WP File and Load WP File.

Saving keeps the plan in a file

If the plan has at least 1 item, save the plan to a file. The file has the plan as it is now.
