Hi
I'm a new PPL, now training for my IMC as well as building more confidence with more complex VFR flying. I've found FSX, properly setup and with the right add-ons and kit, to be an excellent training aid in many ways.I've been able to use the Windows version of Skydemon to connect to the FSX GPS output and that's good. However SkyDemon Plan is quite limited compared to the IPad version, and it would be amazing to be able to connect that to FSX. I realise it may not be an easy or popular request, but it would be massively helpful for me and I reckon it would also be great for Skydemon to use in things like demo's and training sessions.Also you might also open up a new market to simmers doing this. People spend many hundreds on FSX add-ons - YouTube is full of examples. The cost of a Skydemon subscription would be relatively small to some of the serious guys who want it 'as real as it gets'.
If this was even technically feasible, would you consider adding it as a feature? I'm thinking there must be a way, although I manage software developers rather than being one, so people get sick of me saying things like that and then expecting them to figure it out! :-). I'd be happy to research it further on the technical side though if it helps any?
Cheers,
Ian
