The following list of features further endorses just why the CoPilot franchise has been one of the world’s best-selling Flight Simulator add-ons:
Point and Click Flight Planning
CoPilot V3 automates your planning. Use point and click to choose your destination. CoPilot V3 finds the waypoints, specifies compass headings, calculates the distances. It's also ready to be used with CoPilot V3’s new GPS Instrument.
Works with most add-on sceneries
CoPilot V3 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 V3 will recognize the new airports, runways, navigation aids and frequencies.
Printed Maps, Charts and Approach Plates
CoPilot V3 allows you to print your own tailor made “Airman’s Guide” through its chart printing facility. You can print your entire flight plan and aeronautical maps for your reference. For arrival, CoPilot V3 prints full-page airport diagrams. And for flying in the clouds or in bad weather, CoPilot V3 prints the instrument approach plates and other pertinent airport data including glide slopes and ILS frequencies. CoPilot V3’s flexible and convenient printing capabilities are equivalent to hundreds of dollars worth of flight charts and because CoPilot V3 works with all of your add-on scenery, your charts will reflect your exact Flight Simulator setup.
Airport Diagrams
With CoPilot V3, 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. CoPilot V3 lets you publish your own personalized "Airport Guide" customized for your Flight Simulator setup and scenery add-ons.
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 V3 prints 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 V3 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 your destination and the GPS tells you how to get there! This means no more cumbersome VOR frequencies to dial in and no more OBS settings to worry about. What's more, your CoPilot V3 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.
