FlightSim Commander provides a large number of chart widows and special feature windows which intend to facilitate flight planning and navigation. These windows will give additional information not necessarily displayed on the main map


Airport Information Windowion Window

The Airport Information Window provides detailed graphic and textual information on individual airports. This includes among other things runways, frequencies, parking positions, latitude and longitude of the ARP, elevation, and magnetic variation. Of course, airport information can also be printed out.


 

Departure and Arrival Window

The Departure and Arrival Window displays for departure the route from the runway to the first waypoint, while for arrival it shows the route from the last waypoint to the runway. The turns displayed consider, of course, aircraft size and speed, so that a turn will be tighter for a Cessna and fairly wide for a Boeing B747.
In addition, textual information is provided below the graphic display. This information can be given for any runway and may again be printed out, if needed.
 

User Waypoints

In addition to standard official waypoints you can define your own waypoints which are saved in a separate database and are treated in flight planning just as any other waypoint.
FlightSim Commander ships with a database of roughly 1000 user waypoints, mostly reporting points.

 

Runway Window

The Runway Window provides three graphic displays, two the departure and arrival airport respectively. and one showing an approach chart for the landing runway selected in the combo box at the bottom of the window. Again, all these displays can be printed out.

 

Logbook

Each flight is automatically recorded and can then be entered into the logbook.
The logbook informs about fuel consumption, flight and aircraft parameters, and waypoint information.

 

Find Object Window

Did you ever wonder where e.g. airway A11 is located and where it starts and where it ends?
No problem. Open the Find Object Window, type in the appropriate code, select the desired item from the list, and the object will then be displayed in red on the map so that it can be very easily identified.
