Second screen navigation for Flight Simulator X (FSX) and Prepar3D (P3D)
This is a fully functional time limited demo of FlightMap. Each launch of the application will get 5 minutes of server updates and then stop updating airplane location and gauge information. To close out of the application and get another five minutes hit the Android back button and not the home button then relaunch.
FlightMap is a second screen navigation utility for Microsoft's Flight Simulator X (FSX) and Lockheed Martin's Prepar3D (P3D). Use FlightMap to plot your simulated location and flight plans on Google Maps in real time.
FlightMap uses a free server component called FlightConnect which runs on the same computer as the Flight Simulator. FlightConnect must be installed and running before FlightMap will function. FlightConnect is available for free from my website at:
