No it is not on ESC and it newer was!
You have to go to flight planner in the main menu/file (popped by <Alt>).
That's it.
FsPassengers does not influence your GPS settings.
Good luck!

ah ok, ty. I managed to fix the destination via the GPS in plane now but ty anyway. I have one more question. I sat the FP to Heathrow, the
flight path told me to go over USA to the South instead over the Ocean to the East to England. Well i was saticfied with that for the time
and i activated the autopilot. The autopilot did not follow the route by itself, as i thought it would?! (see that as a question) I configurated
the "Direction" to 017 and the altitude to 15000 but still the auto pilot stalled the plane? Why? I remeber a long time ago when i did a flight
stockholm - London and the Auto pilot flew the right direction from the start.

Ive checked the Tutorials but it dint explain this.

All depends much on which exactly plane do you fly.
But here some common rules that applies to all of them.
1. If you want your plane to follow GPS route, turn your avionics from NAV to GPS mode. You should find switch somewhere on the panel.
2. If your AP settings are correct and it stalls the aicraft, then probably you have wrong thrust settings. If you enable Autothrottle than do not
forget to set correct airspeed in AP to hold.
3. RTFM!
