The sounds, literally what the aircraft sounds like. This is determined by defining which WAV files the aircraft uses as its sound-set. The panel, a representation of the aircraft's cockpit. This includes one or more bitmap images of the panel, instrument gauge files, and sometimes its own sounds. The FDE, or Flight Dynamics Engine. This ...
Microsoft Flight Simulator X (FSX) is a 2006 flight simulation video game originally developed by Aces Game Studio and published by Microsoft Game Studios for Microsoft Windows. It is the sequel to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 and the tenth installment of the Microsoft Flight Simulator series, which was first released in 1982.
The simulation also includes vastly more sophisticated aircraft, with nearly complete simulations of aircraft systems, overhead panels and flight management computers (FMCs) in commercial jet airliners; features which were highly incomplete in previous versions. The new Flight Simulator is powered by satellite data and Azure AI. It features ...
Acceleration introduces new features to Flight Simulator X, including 30 new single-player and 19 multiplayer missions, three new aircraft: the F/A-18A Hornet, EH-101 helicopter and the P-51D Mustang, and new scenery enhancements for sites including Berlin, Istanbul, Cape Canaveral and the Edwards Air Force Base.

Add a DME to the panel and the ICAO code becomes SDG/C while the FAA code remains /G. Then, if the ADF stops receiving the ICAO code becomes DGLOV/C while the FAA code remains /G. More letters with the ICAO format mean more information about the aircraft's radio navigation capability is available to the ATS controller than with the older FAA ...
The attitude indicator (AI), also known as the gyro horizon or artificial horizon, is a flight instrument that informs the pilot of the aircraft orientation relative to Earth's horizon, and gives an immediate indication of the smallest orientation change. The miniature aircraft and horizon bar mimic the relationship of the aircraft relative to ...
PFD with key instrument displays labelled PFD of a Garmin G1000. The details of the display layout on a primary flight display can vary enormously, depending on the aircraft, the aircraft's manufacturer, the specific model of PFD, certain settings chosen by the pilot, and various internal options that are selected by the aircraft's owner (i.e., an airline, in the case of a large airliner).
Simplified glass cockpit of an Airbus A220, featuring unified LCD screens for both pilots to reduce pilot workload. A glass cockpit is an aircraft cockpit that features an array of electronic (digital) flight instrument displays, typically large LCD screens, rather than traditional analog dials and gauges. [1]
