| Kneeboard Viewer 2 for P3D/FSX/X-Plane |

File Description:
Kneeboard Viewer 2 (KV2) allows the user to open one or two ‘on-top-windows’ to view programs of choice, such as a web page like SkyVector, or a pdf reader for approach charts, in ‘kneeboard windows’ on top of FSX/P3D/X-Plane. The kneeboard windows may be sized and positioned as desired, and will stay visible on top of FSX/P3D/X-Plane while you fly, or may be toggled on and off (shown or hidden) by user selectable keys (or key combinations). There is also an option to control both kneeboard windows together as a unit with a single key. KV2 works in window or full screen mode with FSX/P3D/X-Plane. KV2 was developed as a possible replacement for the PDFkneeboard program which, unfortunately, does not currently work in the latest versions of P3D. However, KV2 does not depend on FSX, P3D or X-plane in any way, and in fact can be used as a general ‘window-on-top’ type of utility.

File Description:
New version: Updated installer and auto-update functionality along with chart downloaded changes to support browser updated security measures.
FS Flight Builder is a utility for general aviation flying that will build flight files for FSX (flt), FSX Steam Edition (flt), and Prepar3D (fxml) based on waypoints and other data either entered manually or imported from SkyVector using the Plain Text Link information. Among other things, you can select your starting position, aircraft, and VFR or IFR flight plan.
One of the most interesting features of the application is that it will include a Briefing file, added to the aircraft's built-in kneedboard, that will include departure and destination airport information (runways, frequencies, weather, and charts) as well as navigation frequencies along the route.
Have you ever started up flight simulator and wondered “where do I want to go today� The new Destination Chooser functionality can help to solve that problem. The screen allows you to enter your departure airport and choose various parameters for your destination (like min and max distance, tower availability, ILS availability, runway length requirements, etc.).
How to install:
***************
Run Setup.exe and simply follow the installation wizard.
When you run the application for the first time (make sure your flight simulator is not running), it will build the database from your flight sim data. Be patient. It could take a few minutes.
It will attempt to locate your flight sim folder and flight plan folders automatically. If it can't find them, however, you'll need to select them from the options menu.
IMPORTANT!
Because FS Flight Builder saves to your Flight Sim directories, it MUST be run in Administrator mode. To do this, right-click on the desktop icon, select the Compatibility tab, and check the Run as administrator checkbox.
IMPORTANT!
The airport and navaid databases for FS Flight Builder are built using Peter Dowson's excellent Make Runway utility and the equally excellent BGL2XML utility from ScruffyDuck Software. The links to these utilities are below. They must be added to the main FSX or Prepar3D folder.
Peter Dowson's website: http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html
ScruffyDick Software website: http://www.scruffyduck.org/bgl2xml/4584282773
It's also important to note that Version 1.7 of BGL2XML is required for Prepar3D V3 and higher.

| AIFlow SimConnect Utility for P3D v4 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
AIFlow v1.1 is a simconnect utility designed to ease AI congestion and go-arounds at the airport the user is departing from and arriving at. AIFlow does this by enforcing spacing minimums between arriving AI aircraft resulting in more orderly arrival patterns. AIFlow also supports spacing spacing minimums between the AI aircraft and the USER’s aircraft when the user is flying (during all phases of the user's flight). For added realism, AIFlow adds landing effects (e.g., micro bank and pitch corrections that scale up during crosswind conditions) to the AI on short final approach. The user can also briefly squawk 1234 in their aircraft to temporarily suspend landings so that the user can find a slot to depart a busy runway. AIFlow is designed to compliment the default P3D AI program and thus is fully compatible with any AI-related program that is compatible with the default AI program (e.g., AIG, Ultimate Traffic Live, Radar Contact, etc.). AIFlow is targeted to Prepar3D version 4.5 or 5.0, specifically SimConnect Version 4.5.0.0 or later. AIFlow operates externally via simconnect and thus makes no changes to the P3D sim. NEW for v1.1: (1) detect and correct AI performing poor approaches (e.g., dive-bombing, descent into terrain) under control of the P3D AI engine, (2) user can specify minimum and maximum AI approach speeds in terminal area, (3) prevent AI from stopping on runway when user landing, (4) AI plane spotting mode only, (5) external database fallback in case simconnect fails to provide local airport data, (6) adjustable in-sim message level, (7) periodic read of .ini file to tweak parameters more easily, (8) AIFlow starts minimized. FIXES for v1.1 include: sequencing in heavy AI traffic would sometimes cause excessive go-arounds, going around AI would sometimes improperly hold, changing AI spacing from default value did not have any effect, sometimes user aircraft would get controlled, .ini file would sometimes get confused reading parameter values having whites spaces.

| AIGround SimConnect Utility for P3D v4 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
AIGround is a simconnect utility designed to improve AI taxi characteristics at the airport the user’s aircraft is located at. AIGround holds the AI stationary on the tarmac after pushback for a more realistic amount of time before the AI begins its taxi out and optionally performs an extended pushback including more realistically turning the AI toward the apron. The AI will also perform control surface checks as the AI begin their taxi out. Finally, AIGround enforces better spacing between AI and the user’s aircraft when the user is performing a taxi-out or taxi-in. AIGround does this by commanding the AI to temporarily stop in situations that the normal P3D AI control program would miss. In situations where the user might want the AI to pass (e.g., giving way at an intersection), the user can flash the landing lights on the user’s aircraft (on, then quickly off) as a signal to the AI to continue the taxi. AIGround also allows the user to adjust AI landing and takeoff lengths. AIGround is designed to compliment the default P3D AI program and thus is fully compatible with any AI-related program that is compatible with the default AI program (e.g., AIG, Ultimate Traffic Live, Radar Contact, etc.). AIGround is also compatible with the AIFlow simconnect utility. AIGround is targeted to SimConnect Version 4.5.0.0 or later. AIGround operates externally via simconnect and thus makes no changes to the P3D sim. NEW for v1.1: (1) adjust AI landing and takeoff length, (2) option for AI to perform extended pushback including turns, (3) option to disable control checks (for compatibility with certain AI sets), (4) AI plane spotting mode only, (5) adjustable in-sim message level, (6) Periodic read of .ini file to tweak parameters more easily, (7) AIGround starts minimized. FIXES for v1.1: (1) output consolse sometimes froze, (2) AI cyclic stop-start, (3) .ini file would sometimes get confused reading parameter values having whites spaces.
