FSX Carrier Operation Package v3.0. This freeware archive contains a set of gauges, effects and sounds which you can add to tailhook-equiped aircraft in FSX, and enables you to perform takeoffs and approaches/landings on aircraft carriers (static and moving). It features (1) A catapult gauge, enabling a catapult-launch takeoff. (2) An arrester gauge, enabling a cable-arrested landing. (3) A IFLOLS gauge, enabling accurate approaches and landings. (4) A SonicBoom effect (visual and audible) plus controller gauge. Includes extensive installation/usage documentation. Requires prior installation of FSUIPC. Special credit goes to Doug Dawson; without his (included) interface gauges (a.o. for speedcontrol, launch/arrest zone definitions and sound playing) this package would not exist. By Rob Barendregt.

FS2004 Exit Gauge This exit gauge is designed to take the following various keystrokes out of FS and replaces them with a mouse click; Exits 1 + 2, Tailhook, Wingfold and the Water Rudder. You can still use the keystrokes via the keyboard. Designed by Chris Sykes. 286K

FS2004 Helicopter Torque Induced Yaw Gauge. This gauge can be used in any FS2004 helicopter. It allows the user to introduce some Torque Induced Yaw whenever the collective lever is raised (and opposite yaw when it is lowered). Yaw can be introduced in either direction, and the amount of yaw can be varied from zero to Max. Jim Cooper. 65K

FSX Gauges: Pushback, Taxispeed control, etc. This archive contains version 5.0 of my "groundhandling" gauges, like automated pushback with conversation sounds, a Taxispeed controller using throttle AND brake settings, and more; it can added to any aircraft. New in V5.0: 1. Only for FSX !! 2. Accurate interworking with the new FSX pushback tugs. YES, finally :-) !!! 3. Reworked Brakes gauge. 4. Taxispeed gauge now has a built-in ARM function. Easy to install, and fully documented. By Rob Barendregt. 447K FSX Gauges: Pushback, Taxispeed control, etc Optional Addon. This package is an optional addon to archive rcbgh-50.zip, and contains a solution to Open/Close the Groundhandling window via a permanently visible Icon. Prior installation of rcbgh-50.zip is required ! By Rob Barendregt. 70K

FS2004 Mouse Throttle Gauge v1.0 This is a throttle gauge controled by your mouse wheel, alowing users to change the thrust settings with more ease. Especially designed for Boeing 737-400. Ending of the colored scale correspondes to the 95% N1 power setting. By asasino. 627K

FS2004 Gauge: VTOL/Hover for Adam Preece' GR7 Harrier (here) This freeware gauge adds a whole new flightmodel and new VTOL & Hover features to Adam Preece' freeware Harrier. Besides true vertical takeoff&landing, it allows you to fly forward, backward, sideways and turn, while in a hover. This solution is based on overriding the normal FS flightdynamics while in a hover, simular to the implementation of catapult launch / cable arrest in my Carrier Operation Package; in short, it's a VTOL&Hover FDE coded in a gauge. Special thanks to Doug Dawson, who created a gauge that provides for overriding FS2004 variables from an XML gauge. Besides a VTOL controller, it also contains an effects controller plus visual effects, for things like wingtip vortex, directional engine smoke and a cannon. Requires FSUIPC (registered or unregistered). The README includes extensive installation and flying instructions. By Rob Barendregt. 89K

FS2004 SuperTimer2. This gauge has a dual timer and a clock that displays both Zulu or Local time in a 24-hour format. Each timer operates independently with reset, start, and stop features. Both record to 9:59:59. All eight buttons give a positive visual feedback when pressed. You can record total flight time on one timer and use the other timer for all other timing needs, plus keep the Zulu or Local time visible continously. Two installation options, panel or window.

FS2004 KillDrift gauge v1. The video screen graphically displays the effect of wind on the track of an aircraft. This allows the drift error to be eliminated. Wind speed and wind direction are also shown. Two separate course headings can be stored into this gauge. Included is an icon gauge for installing KillDrift into separate window, but can also be placed on a panel. The gauge can be helpful for hovering/landing helicopters because of its 360-degree display capability. By Glenn Copeland. 827K

FS2004 GPS Map View v2.0 The ultimate gauge. The Map will show: Airports details (Runways ID's, length & ILS), VOR's and NDB's frequencies, Intersections and waypoints, Airspaces, Approaches and flight routes. You can toggle the view you require for your flight. Also you can zoom in/out to see the nearest airports, vor's and ndb's. The map will indicate A/C heading flightplan title and waypoints ID's. Version 2 includes more enhancements such as the ability to input the ICAO code of any airport and the map will show all the frequencies of that airport including ATIS, ILS, AND COM. In addition, the map will show the active runway designations, length and width. The Desert Jockey Copyright 2005, Talal A Alhaj. 249K
