gates.to/FSNet Platform

File Description:
The first and only software available today allowing you to reproduce a real cockpit environment over an Internet connection or a local LAN within FS2004. You can finally synchronize your systems so that you are able to fly the same aircraft from different locations: for example, you lower the gear while sitting in front of your PC in New York and your co-pilot gets the gear lowered on his system in Sydney as well! Having such a system finally allows for realistic pilot/co-pilot flights: doing checklists and taking care of your own duties reproducing what happen in the real world!

PMDG 747 Audio Checklist

File Description:
PMDG 747 Easy Audio Checklist v1.0. This freeware interactive Audio Checklist for the PMDG Boeing 747 was created to start the PMDG 747 faster and easier, beginning form a cold and dark cockpit.

"Traffic View Board" Updated files for v3

File Description:
This is the third update for the excellent Traffic View Board by Arnt Helge Haland. The airlines file is a bit older and I added many airlines with their callsigns and ICAO/IATA codes which I was missing while using this wonderful tool. I also added the new airports VTBS - Bangkok (Thailand) and RJGG - Nagoya (Japan). Read the readme.txt carefully for more needful information.

FSPaxHotkeyPanel

File Description:
This is a stand-alone application created for use with FSPassengers within Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 - A Century of Flight. It was built using Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition and as such requires Microsoft .NET 2.0 Redistributable which is freely available from www.microsoft.com. The panel switches between applications e.g when a button is pressed on the panel it will send the key command to FS2004 and immediately switch back to the sim. (this requires that the user is using the original hotkey assignments in FSPassengers).

Baron fuel planner

File Description:
This program will give you a guide for how much fuel to take on a flight with the Dreamfleet Baron 58. It will NOT be a perfect calculation. This program will not fly the airplane for you, nor will it manage the engines for you. If you don't manage your engines according to the documentation, this program will not be accurate at all. The program takes into account the numbers from the documentation along with winds to determine how much fuel you should need for a particular flight. This program is not associated with or supported by Dreamfleet.

Multiple fs9.exe Tutorial (German)

File Description:
This is the German version of David Roch's tutorial (which you also find here at AVSIM.com). It shows how to create multiple fs9.exe-files with different settings in the fs9.cfg. Since different Aircrafts and sceneries sometimes need different settings/options, this tutorial helps you to change your settings and/or options once and then you start your FS2004 "ready to fly". It's really easy! Come in and find out!
