What Flight
Simmers Say about CoPilot
"I am a 2800+ hour,
multi-engine IFR rated pilot. CoPilot is the best program I have
ever seen for flight sims. Thanks for publishing it." from M.R. via the Internet
"CoPilot is a GREAT
add-on. Being able to print nav charts, airport layouts, and
ILS approach plates is fantastic. FS2K has attempted to build
some of this functionality via their flight planning and world
map, but (not quite up to) what you guys offer. The Abacus GPS
and moving map really make FS2K come alive..." from D.A. via the Internet
"...my recent purchase
of CoPilot is an absolutely excellent value. Being unfamiliar
with both the program itself and Abacus, I was certain that I
was basically buying an inexpensive add-on that may or may not
do what it promised. I was very surprised to initially find a
manual that was both very well written and printed nicely as
well...Additionally the presence of a GPS has opened a new dimension
to FS98 that will enable me to explore places and do things that
would have otherwise never occured." from R.B. via the Internet
"The product is very
good. I have been actually flying for some 27 years now and the
GPS/planning software is the best I have used of all the flight
sim software I have tested."
from J.L. via the Internet
"On turning onto my
last beacon I was lined up with the airport. (CoPilot) helped
me to achieve a near-perfect flight. Thanks. " from B.M. via the Internet
"I would not even think
about running Flight Simulator without CoPilot.", D.S. via the Internet

| Point
and Click Flight Planning |
|
Copilot automates your planning.
Use point and click to choose your destination. CoPilot
finds the waypoints, specifies compass headings, calculates the
distances. It's also ready to be used with CoPilot's new
GPS instrument.
To the right
is a typical flight plan from Southern California to the Napa
wine country.
|
Works
with most add-on sceneries
CoPilot uses
the information from your Microsoft Flight Simulator scenery
files. This means that your planning is customized for your particular
setup, for virtually all of the scenery add-on packages you may
install.
If
you install another scenery, you can quickly include the new
areas and CoPilot will recognize the new airports, runways,
navigation aids and frequencies.

Printed
Maps, Charts and Approach Plates
Would you like
your own personalized "Airman's Guide"? You can print
your own fully detailed charts with CoPilot.
CoPilot prints your entire
flight plan and aeronautical maps for your reference. For arrival
CoPilot prints full-page airport
diagrams.
And for flying
in the clouds or in bad weather, CoPilot prints the instrument approach plates
and other pertinent airport data including glide slopes and ILS
frequencies.
| CoPilot's flexible and convenient
printing capabilities is equivalent to hundreds of dollars worth
of flight charts. And because CoPilot works with all of your
add-on scenery, your charts will reflect your exact Flight Simulator
setup. |

Airport
Diagrams
With CoPilot,
you'll know ahead of time how your destination airport is laid
out. No longer will you have to guess about the orientation of
the runways.
After all,
a missed approach burns up expensive fuel. You might rather buy
another bottle of Napa Valley Cabernet with this money.
CoPilot lets you publish your
own personalized "Airport Guide" customized for your
Flight Simulator setup and scenery add-ons.
To demonstrate
CoPilot's usefulness, we have prepared a set of 16 primary U.S.
airport diagrams You can view and/or print this FREE set
of diagrams. Please click here CoPilotAirportDiagrams.pdf
(1.6 MB, PDF format).

Instrument
Approach Plates
For making
those ILS landings, you'll want to have all of the approach information
ahead of time - before you have to use it. CoPilot print
high quality instrument approach plates for any ILS approach
in your scenery files - complete with glide slope, frequencies
and more.
|
|
|
|
| GPS and Moving Map |
|
CoPilot also features a Global
Positioning System (GPS) instrument. The GPS receiver "talks"
to Flight Simulator and lets you navigate effortlessly no matter
where you want to fly. Simply select the destination and the
GPS tells you how to get there! Think of it - no more cumbersome
VOR frequencies to dial in and no more OBS settings to worry
about. What's more is that your CoPilot flight plans are
ready-to-use with the GPS. The GPS received also drives
the moving map so you can see your track and position.
- The GPS is
fully compatible with just about any 3D Video cards - even those
that run in full-screen only mode.
- The GPS is
completely resizable and movable and can be tucked into a small
corner of your instrument panel.
- CoPilot lets you use the airports
and navaids from all of your add-on sceneries so you never
have to update a separate database.
- The GPS connects
to your aircraft's Autopilot. Clicking on the Autopilot on/off
switch automatically sets the heading for any aircraft that uses
the autopilot.
- You'd like
to create flights using any of the thousands of standard fixes
and intersections - see below. The fixes are grouped - Enroute
Low Altitude, Enroute High Altitude, IAP and "Others".
You can display the corresponding radials as shown below.

The Moving
Map instantly shows your exact position and track as you
fly. Here we've arranged the display for flying completely by
GPS navigation and the moving map. We don't even have to use
the VORs to get to our destination. And the GPS automatically
uses the waypoints from your flight plan.
NOTE: CoPilot's versatile
GPS instrument can be installed into any FS2002, FS2000 or FS98
aircraft with just two mouse clicks!

Deep in the bowels of Flight
Simulator is lots of information. Among the data are the names
and locations of the 20,000+ airport for FS2002 or FS2000 and
3500+ airports for FS98.
Wouldn't it be cool if you
could see where these airports are located as you fly over the
scenery?
With EZ-VFR
you can! EZ-VFR
is
another bright idea from flight sim expert Konstantin Kukushkin:

What Flight
Simmers Say about EZ-VFR
"Received
the registration key for EZ-VFR today. Thought I would let you
know that I think the program is quite brilliant and transforms
the use and pleasure in using FS2002" - D.W. from U.K.
I
just installed the EZ-VFR utility...and it's so cool ! If you
know the runway ... you can maneuver to match the heading to
airport in the forward view with the heading for the runway you
want to use to make a fairly accurate VOR-type approach. Very
interesting, especially during foul weather. Anyway great product!", R.B.
