FS2004 Simulated Aircraft Bubble Sextant As travel by air developed and matured, navigation over long distances also developed and improved. In the early days, however, air navigation essentially used ship navigation techniques adapted for aircraft. Without "landmarks", the navigators used Ded Reckoning (DR) and the stars. Celestial or Astronomical Navigation provides a means of obtaining Lines of Position (LOPs) from the stars. Crossing LOPs will fix a position. It requires a chart, and a planned course on that chart, with waypoints specified by Latitude and Longitude, an assumed time of arrival at each waypoint, and stars (including the Sun, Moon, or planets) in view. In the 1940s, extensive tables of star positions were made available to air navigators to be used with sextants to obtain these LOPs. In the tables, all times involved are GMT. This data is available from the Internet in "ready to use" form. This gauge simulates the sextant, and the process by which one obtains a LOP, or crossing LOPs to obtain a position, or fix. Can be used with any FS2004 aircraft. Includes comprehensive browser-based manual and references. By Dave Bitzer and Mark Beaumont. File name: DC3_BBSX.ZIP. 991K

Wind-Information gauges for FS2004 aircraft. These gauge was written after a VFR ferryflight from Key West (Florida) to St. Johann (Austria). Often I missed wind-informations for higher or lower altitudes. Sometimes I have noticed, that if I will fly at an other altitude I will have tail wind instead of head wind. But this informations i could only got flying to this altitude and test it. By Andreas Widmann. 42K

FS2004 Modified default Kingair Radio gauge. This is the gauge file which contains the six separate Nav 1, 2; Comm 1, 2; Transponder; and ADF radios, as well as the metallic toggle switches. All except the ADF have transparent bitmaps, so that only the numerical frequency display is visible. The separate numerical displays can be placed in any customized radio image with any typical panel-maker program. The black, or grey, rectangular base of the toggle switches have also been made transparent, so that the metallic ring at the base of the switch blends better with a panel background. It should also work in FS2002. This gauge is Freeware. By Will Fisher. 28K

FS2004 Fuel dump & refuel gauge Three colors red, black and gray. This is a variation of the FSUIPC_DUMPv2004.gau that is originally transparent but now visible to install on any panel. Copyright by Arne Bartels. The gauges will dump fuel up to 20% if tanks full and refill up to 70% if empty. FSUIPC Shareware version required.
