User reviews

Needs xplane GPS

Needs Xplane gps interface. I believe this requires app to accept location from wifi for demo mode. This would be helpful.

Great

Thanks for writing this app. It has been very valuable tool. I provide training to overseas pilots. This app allows for exposure and diversity in their training when the remote area and other area specific considerations would flat out prevent it.
