Ozark Virtual Airlines---Pilot Information

Information - Information and links to better your flight sim experience.

USA ARTCC Sites

Here at the Pilot resource center you will find information such as charts and flight planning information to better your flight experience.

Most real-world information is directly usable in simming, some is not due to the restraints of Flightsim. Use what you can and it will make your VA/FS experience "as real as it gets."

Finally, if you find something that you think would be helpful to your fellow virtual pilots, be sure and post a link to it in the "Suggestions" forum. We ALL stand to learn from one another.

Flight Simulator Utilities

	FS Navigator is a fully integrated plug-in for FS2004, FS2002, which provides you with a Navigational Map and Flight Planner, Flight Management System, World-wide Search & Find function for Airports and Navigational Aids, World-wide current Airway and Intersection Database, Graphical SID/STAR Editor and many more features! Awesome program that works great!! OVA highly reccomends this software as well.
	FSUIPC is an essential "Module" that bridges 3rd-party software with FS. This is freeware, however a $20 dollar registration fee is charged if you want the full-version. Your CEO uses a registered version and I have never looked back since!
	Activesky wxRE means Weather Realism Engine. This new release based on ActiveSky 2002 is the next-generation weather environment engine for FS2002 & 2004! New features include smooth visual cloud transitions, Offline use, Dynamic Processing via TAFs, Wake Turbulence and much, much more!
	FS Meteo is another automatic weather generation program for FS similar to ActiveSky.
	FS Screen is a great little utility that will take and automatically save an unlimited number of screenshots for you while you fly. Just unzip it to your hard drive, then open it up while flying, press "Print Screen" as many times as you want and then after your flight open up the images using your favorite image editing program. Your CEO uses this for all the screenshots at the hanger areas as well as all screenshots he takes.
