If we are talking of AivlaSoft EFB, the only think i don't like it is that i can't give the real life DH because it builds the IACs reading the data from the AIRAC. So, because the AIRAC doesn's have that info it only adds 200 ft for cat I, 100 ft for Cat II and 50 feet for cat III.But then its a great software.

Surely this is your opportunity to go on some forums and repeatedly demand regular news and updates? :LMAO:Al

I don't use TOPCAT for a variety of reasons, but their flight planner does indeed look like it will be a great add-on. I'm also curious what "SIM AIR" will be by REX.

Nice post guys I'm also curious what "SIM AIR" will be by REX, I'll bet its a great atc program what ever it is, it should be great if its anything like REX :( Rich

Vatsim is easily the most important addon for me when it comes to realism.

Got loads of add-ons, all the ones in the OP.REX is great, but...Fspassengers is the best IMO as it really makes you try for that kiss on the runway and gives FSX purpose - without it, well, you can fly how you like without consequence - what's the point in that in the game. On their forums there is always tears about burst tyres - so funny as they try to land at 170knots at a V/S of 600 to 800 and blame the program. Bless.Chris Farrell

Apart from all this aircraft fidelity stuff which is absolutely valid ...3D glasses/3D vision.This is the single biggest difference that separates FSX-like simulation from commercial simulators.

Until the NGX is released Chris, then SP2 will have to be installed. (and a defrag)Raised%20Eyebrow.gif

Works good as long as you don't run any hardware controllers with LEDs. Can't see my MCP/Radio settings/etc with 3Dvision due to the flickering lenses.

Interesting, precious little mention of scenery addons like GEX, UTS, scenery tech, etc. Dan Cole
