August 29, 200520 yr Hi Andrew,Thanks for your reply, since then I've developed the gauge which I thought impossible, however, it turned out good and useful. The posted version is 2.0. I have, so far, improved it tremendously.There was a bug in it, in which if you enter the ICAO code of an airport, you will lose the flight plan loaded. Now you can go back to the flight plan and with the NEXT/PREV buttons you have the choice of where to start you FP.The gauge will show Flight Plan Title, originating and destination airports, active waypoint, waypoint index and FP crusing altitude.I addition, the gauge will show the Nearest Airports, VORs and NDBs. Various useful information is also presented, such as, Runway IDs, lenght, width, approach magnetic heading, Airport name, city, and type. NAV1/2 names, codes, distances and ETA's, ADF1/2 names and codes.Finally, the gaugee will show other information, such as, magvar, indicated airspeed, mach, ground velocity, ambient wind velocity and direction, bank angle , and a/c altitude ( radio height ).I hope that I've contributed somthing useful to the simming community and to a flying hobby that I just love.I'll post v3.0 very soon since I got the following quote from AVSIM:"By my count, this is the 5th update you have made to your file this month. Here is a quote from the Upload Guide: "Numerous updates and fixes are very confusing to our readers, and will not be accepted if provided within a short period of time" Please consider this guidance before making any more changes to your file. Many thanks Stewart PearsonLibrary TechnicianAVSIM"The reason for the frequent updates was that I had few weeks off my work and hundreds of E-mails of fellow simmers that lighted the torch to continue.The Desert Jockey
