What Flight Simmers Say about CoPilot

"I am a 2800+ hour, multi-engine IFR rated pilot. CoPilot is the best program I have ever seen for flight sims. Thanks for publishing it." from M.R. via the Internet

"CoPilot is a GREAT add-on. Being able to print nav charts, airport layouts, and ILS approach plates is fantastic. FS2K has attempted to build some of this functionality via their flight planning and world map, but (not quite up to) what you guys offer. The Abacus GPS and moving map really make FS2K come alive..." from D.A. via the Internet

"...my recent purchase of CoPilot is an absolutely excellent value. Being unfamiliar with both the program itself and Abacus, I was certain that I was basically buying an inexpensive add-on that may or may not do what it promised. I was very surprised to initially find a manual that was both very well written and printed nicely as well...Additionally the presence of a GPS has opened a new dimension to Flight Simulator that will enable me to explore places and do things that would have otherwise never occured." from R.B. via the Internet

"The product is very good. I have been actually flying for some 27 years now and the GPS/planning software is the best I have used of all the flight sim software I have tested." from J.L. via the Internet

"On turning onto my last beacon I was lined up with the airport. (CoPilot) helped me to achieve a near-perfect flight. Thanks. " from B.M. via the Internet

"I would not even think about running Flight Simulator without CoPilot.", D.S. via the Internet

CoPilot V3 Features Explained...

Point and Click Flight Planning

CoPilot automates your planning. Use point and click to choose your destination. CoPilot finds the waypoints, specifies compass headings, calculates the distances. It's also ready to be used with CoPilot's new GPS instrument.

Below is a typical flight plan from Southern California to the Napa wine country.

Works with most add-on sceneries

CoPilot 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 will recognize the new airports, runways, navigation aids and frequencies.

Printed Maps, Charts and Approach Plates

Would you like your own personalized "Airman's Guide"? You can print your own fully detailed charts with CoPilot.

CoPilot prints your entire flight plan and aeronautical maps for your reference. For arrival CoPilot prints full-page airport diagrams.

And for flying in the clouds or in bad weather, CoPilot prints the instrument approach plates and other pertinent airport data including glide slopes and ILS frequencies.

CoPilot's flexible and convenient printing capabilities is equivalent to hundreds of dollars worth of flight charts. And because CoPilot works with all of your add-on scenery, your charts will reflect your exact Flight Simulator setup.

Airport Diagrams

With CoPilot, 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. You might rather buy another bottle of Napa Valley Cabernet with this money.

CoPilot lets you publish your own personalized "Airport Guide" customized for your Flight Simulator setup and scenery add-ons.

To demonstrate CoPilot's usefulness, we have prepared a set of 16 primary U.S. airport diagrams You can view and/or print this FREE set of diagrams. Please click here CoPilotAirportDiagrams.pdf (1.6 MB, PDF format).

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 print 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 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 the destination and the GPS tells you how to get there! Think of it - no more cumbersome VOR frequencies to dial in and no more OBS settings to worry about. What's more is that your CoPilot 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.

- The GPS is fully compatible with just about any 3D Video cards - even those that run in fullscreen only mode.
- The GPS is completely resizable and movable and can be tucked into a small corner of your instrument panel.
- CoPilot lets you use the airports and navaids from all of your add-on sceneries so you never have to update a separate database.
- The GPS connects to your aircraft's Autopilot. Clicking on the Autopilot on/off switch automatically sets the heading for any aircraft that uses the autopilot.
- You'd like to create flights using any of the thousands of standard fixes and intersections - see below. The fixes are grouped - Enroute Low Altitude, Enroute High Altitude, IAP and "Others". You can display the corresponding radials as shown below.


The Moving Map instantly shows your exact position and track as you fly. Here we've arranged the display for flying completely by GPS navigation and the moving map. We don't even have to use the VORs to get to our destination. And the GPS automatically uses the waypoints from your flight plan.
