AM Broadcast Radio - The 1930's Nav-Aid and In-Flight Entertainment Appliance

File Description:
This system of scenery, sound, panel, and gauge additions seeks to simulate the use of Commercial AM Broadcast stations for aviation Navigation, Weather, Information, and Music in the 1930’s, before the installation of the Radio Range, and NDB systems. It is intended to predate those systems, and to work with them as appropriate. A set of ten 1-minute WAV files - samples of period music and radio broadcasts - forms the core of this facility. Full instructions are included, together with information on the development of this add-on. January 2007.

Reality XP 737 ADI Demo In True Display XP V2.0

File Description:
For the discriminating pilots, Jet Line Avionics is a comprehensive solution brought to you by Reality XP. Modeled after today’s real world avionics, it is a modern EFIS system. The Jet Line Avionics products are unequaled in providing the features, levels of performance and reliability that flight simulation users require. The Reality XP Jet Line Avionics sets a new higher standard to which all other Avionics Simulations will be compared. True Display XP Is our unique technology designed to provide enough visual cues and precision, while not sacrificing the accuracy at any resolution. This is achieved with both a high refresh rate and a highly sophisticated rendering engine, while virtually having no impact to the FS2004 Frame Rate. With this technology in any aircraft product, you’ll be able to precisely hand fly any ILS approach to a level of precision you’ve never been used to with any other FS2004 add-on. Seeing is believing! Unlike the other “vector gauges”, our unique technology not only resembles and feels like a real CRT/LCD, but is more elaborate than an Anti Aliasing Line Drawing system. This prevents any “jitter” in effectively rendering all the display at a sub pixel resolution. This fully functional demo version introduces our True Display XP v2.0.

Airspeed Reduction Monitor (ARM)

File Description:
FS2004 Gauge: Airspeed Reduction Monitor(ARM).

This small, fully animated gauge arms the spoilers and reverse thrusters so both deploy upon landing. The gauge does not extend spoilers or activate reverse thrusters until the nose wheel is safely on the runway. This overcomes the pitch-up tendency in some jets caused when the spoilers deploy as soon as the main gear touches down. As IAS decreases to preset limits, r/thrusters auto-deactivate followed later by spoiler retraction. By Glenn Copeland

Kill Drift Gauge

File Description:
FS2004 KillDrift Gauge v1. The video screen on this gauge graphically displays the effect of wind on the track of an aircraft. This allows the pilot to eliminate drift error. Wind speed and wind direction are also shown. Two separate course headings can be stored into this gauge. Included is an icon gauge for installing KillDrift into separate window. It can also be installed on a panel. The gauge can be helpful for hovering/landing helicopters because of its 360-degree display capability. By Glenn Copeland

VTOL/Hover gauge for Fairey Rotodyne

File Description:
This freeware gauge adds new VTOL & Hover features to Kazunori Ito's Rotodyne. Besides true vertical takeoff&landing, it allows you to fly forward, backward, sideways and turn, while in a hover. This solution is based on overriding the normal FS flightdynamics while in a hover; in short, it's a VTOL&Hover FDE coded in a gauge. Special thanks to Doug Dawson, who created a gauge that provides for overriding FS2004 variables from an XML gauge. Requires FSUIPC (registered or unregistered, NOT included). The README includes extensive installation and flying instructions. By Rob Barendregt.

Harrier VSTOL/Effects Control Gauges

File Description:
This archive contains addon's for Adam Preece' GR.7 Harrier aircraft, which IMHO is the best visual Harrier model available at this time: 1. New flight dynamics, seperately animated nozzles and flaps, and a VSTOL control gauge, enabling a stable VSTOL operation (vertical landing/takeoff) with auto-pitch control, whilst maintaining realistic normal-flight characteristics. 2. A set of gauge-controlled effects, like engine heat/smoke (backwards or downwards, depending on nozzles position), a visible/audible cannon, and wing vapor / wingtip vortex effects. And more ....A real must-try for Harrier fans. See included README for further details.

WhazzUp

File Description:
FS2004 Gauge: WhazzUp. Or, what's down. It may be your trim, your airspeed, fuel, flaps, landing gear, spoilers, throttle, ailerons, elevators, or rudder. Okay, sideways on the rudder. WhazzUp tracks the position of all these elements and shows the results in multiple displays on the gauge. It also warns of overspeed, stall, and low fuel. Diode indicators show neutral trim conditions for the ailerons, elevators, and rudder. The trim on each of these can quickly be set to zero with a single press on the associated diode. For panel or separate window install. With Icon gauge. WhazzUWaitN4? By Glenn Copeland

JELAIR - Hurricane-Hunter Weather Monitor (version#2)

File Description:
This xml-gauge is for pilots flying weather-research flights. It measures a variety of weather variables (and stores the HI and LO values for some of them). New in version#2 is the vertical weather-spectrum recorder, which can record the weather for each 500 feet of altitude from the ground and up to FL300 (This can be useful for instance if you need to get the latest actual approach-weather, along a glideslope, relayed to a pilot coming in for a high-priority approach. It can also be used to record the weather at different altitudes inside a hurricane, or any other weather-system, and then analyze the weather-data once you are back on the ground.

KD_RDF Radio Direction Finder

File Description:
ADF navigation was preceeded by LF receivers with manually swung directional loop antennas. They provided essentially the same information, but required more operator intervention, and had an 180 degree ambiguity as well. This gauge comprises a loop navigation system simulating the manually swung loops of the 1930's. It includes the gauges and documentation to replace the ADF with a simulated manually steered loop antenna for those who may wish to simulate the very early Radio Navigation flights. This gauge can be used in conjunction with the Radio Range add-on. While designed for the DC-3, this gauge can be used with any aircraft from the 1930s era.
