Designed to integrate with the X-Plane flight simulator, AirFMC provides an interface layer to your favourite flight management system and allows you to have a remote, portable and beautiful CDU, leaving your screen free for enjoying the scenic routes. Flying with an FMC is good but have you ever thought how annoying it is to have to look for the small keys on a virtual cockpit and click on them with a mouse to get something done? What if you could now do it wirelessly with your fingertips using an iPad's big screen? And what if you could use just one App for all your favourite planes? AirFMC does just this; brings the CDU of your favourite planes to the tip of your fingers. In its current release we are proud to support the following list of planes and FMC systems: For X-Plane: - The x737 Boeing 737-800 from EADT using x737FMC - The UFMC from Javier Cortes - The CRJ-200 from Javier Rollon - The Boeing 777 Worldliner by FlightFactor - The Boeing 757 Professional by FlightFactor - The X-FMC freeware project and all the planes in which it runs - The QPAC A320 v2 - The Boeing 767 from VMAX - The A320NEO from JAR Design - The Boeing 737 Classifc from IXEG / X-Aviation - The Boeing 737-800 modified by Zibo - The Airbus A350 XWB Advanced from FlightFactor - The Airbus A319, A321 and A340 from ToLiss - The A330 from JAR Design - The MD80 from Rotate - The Boeing 737-700 and 737-900 Ultimate - The A320 from Flight Factor - The Hot Start CL650 - And lastly the X-Plane airliner FMC shipped with default planes FOr MSFS 2020: - PMDG 737 NG3 Family of Planes Please note, AirFMC is not an FMC in its own right. It does not have "intelligence" so to say, it does not manage routes nor flight performance parameters. At least, not yet! What it does is, it connects to planes that already have these systems and provides an interface surface to their CDUs. AirFMC works in conjunction with X-Plane and MSF2020 (on selected planes) through the use of a plugin which must be installed in the flight simulator and it requires a TCP/IP network connecting this app to a flight simulator.

iGoDispatch Saab-340A is an iOS application developed for the X-Plane's Saab-340A airplane model designed by Leading Edge Simulations. iGoDispatch helps you create a flight plan; estimate the required amount of fuel for your flight; load the plane with passengers, cargo and fuel; calculate various plane parameters, such as weight, %MAC and Centre of Gravity; track the flight on a map; as well as dynamically adjust the current Centre of Gravity offset during the flight. The application will then assess your flight performance against more than 20 parameters. It also includes inflight public announcements in several languages. Add functionality and realism to this plane! In order to connect the application to X-Plane, iGoConnect plug-in must be installed. Note: iGoConnect uses TCP connection between your iPad and the computer where X-Plane is installed.
