HJG 26th Anniversary - Big "LITTLE BOEING" Release Few might have been aware .... but .... "APRIL 9TH" represented a date of major historic significance on the real world aviation calendar.

Hey everyone, I've been working on a free web tool called SimLetsFly and wanted to share it here for some feedback. The idea is simple — it's a random flight generator for sim pilots. You set your criteria (location, distance, airport size, runway type, fuel, nav aids) and it finds you a random departure and arrival pairing you'd never think to plan yourself. Great for bush flying, airline ops, GA — whatever you fly. What it does: Filters by continent/country/region, airport type, runway surface, length, fuel, and nav aids (ILS/VASI/ALS) Pulls live METAR weather for both airports with a plain-English decoder Shows distance, bearing, and estim…

Hi everybody, for some reason I am desperately surching the install file A320FMGS_B54.1.2.exe for my full scale DIY A320 cockpit. I already adressed Jean-Luc who is the developer of this wonderful freeware but for what reason soever he doesn't keep older versions of his software. So if someone here has this file still on his harddisk I would be very grateful if he could give me acces to a copy.

Hi, everybody. My name is Dmitry. I am doing a free project of Burbank KBUR Airport. The airport will be completely free. I decided to start this project first for myself, but then I realized that the existing product is not optimized and outdated for 2024. In this project I am going to make the airport itself and the environment surrounding the airport.

Just wanted to let everyone know about my website The P3D Files. I have made several airports for P3Dv6, as well as aircraft for P3Dv4-6. I just uploaded my Airbus A320-200 IAE mod today. I'll be adding airports KDEN and KRAP over the next month. My next aircraft will be the Boeing 737-900. Dave
