Welcome to AirSailr IFR Simulator!

CONTROLS:

ASI and Attitude indicator controls can be used to control speed and bank angle by using drag functions on them.

  • Up/Down - Throttle control
  • Left/Right - Turn plane
  • Space - Stop plane movement
  • Home - Stop plane turn
  • R - Reset plane
  • C - Clear plane track
  • Mouse wheel - Rotate HDG/OBS knob ±1 degree
  • Shift + Mouse wheel - Rotate HDG/OBS knob ±5 degrees
  • Left click (hold) - Move NAVAID or plane
  • Left click (click) - Set the clicked frequency as standby

USAGE:

Add VOR and NDB stations via and buttons. Adjust frequency by clicking the value in NAVAIDs sidebar. Remove a station by clicking the red trashcan icon or button. Tune valid frequencies via radio panel. Type in standby channel and transfer to active channel, or click on NAVAID list/viewport number. Distances are shown with VOR-DMEs; estimated by equatorial standard (1 degree = 111 km). Cone of confusion and signal strength are not simulated.

MISSION MODE:

Access via "Mission" button. The game hides randomly generated NAVAIDs; find them by tuning radio frequencies. On crossing a NAVAID, sidebar item turns green; move to the next NAVAID. Use "Reveal" button to give up and show hidden NAVAIDs.

OPTIONS:

  • Show Compass: Displays compass around plane.
  • Auto turn: Plane keeps turning after releasing keys; counter-turn or press "Home" to align.
  • Fixed ADF: ADF compass manually set via HDG knob; when unchecked, links to regular compass.
  • Show helper lines:Shows additional learning guides for VOR and ADF operation.

LOADING NAVAIDs

  • Paste text to "Load" dialog to recreate scenarios. Use format: Type;ID;Frequency;Latitude;Longitude.
  • Use dialog to add map features. Use format: LINE;Y1;X1;Y2;X2;Color;Thickness.

Accepted data format, there are 3 types of the lines can be used:

                Type;ID;Frequency;Latitude;Longitude

Where:

Type = VOR or NDB
ID = Alphanumeric identificator
Frequency = XXX.XX (VOR) or XXX.0 (NDB)
Latitude = Floating point number from -90.0 to +90.0
Longitude = Floating point number from -180.0 to +180.0

LINE;Y1;X1;Y2;X2;Color;Thickness

Where:

Y1/Y2 = Floating point number from -90.0 to +90.0
X1/X2 = Floating point number from -180.0 to +180.0
Color = RGB color in the format 0xRRGGBB
Thickness = Integer representing the line thickness

CENTER;LAT;LONG;ZOOM

Where:

LAT = Latitude coordinate to center the map
LONG = Longitude coordinate to center the map
ZOOM = Zoom level of the map(0-15, 0 - shows The Earth and 15 shows Buildings)
