FS-FlightControl AB-Tools GmbH

FS-FlightControl AB-Tools GmbH makes FS-FlightControl, an instructor operator station for flight simulators. The software works with Microsoft Flight Simulator, Prepar3D, FSX, Flight Sim World and X-Plane. It is touch optimized and also has Android and iOS apps next to the Windows program.

Features listed include easy aircraft positioning on approaches, a real time moving map with VATSIM, IVAO and PilotEdge support, weather control and a fuel and load manager. It also has pushback control, slew mode and a failure system with random failures. Other tools show an overview of the aircraft with six pack gauges, PFD and TCAS, and statistics with Google Earth export.

The program connects through SimConnect for Prepar3D and Microsoft Flight Simulator, so no extra tools like FSUIPC are needed. For X-Plane, it connects by UDP without a plug in. It supports flight planning for JeeHell, AST, Project Magenta, FSLabs, Aerosoft and Wilco aircraft. It can also remote control network computers and watch motion and control loading devices.

The company serves flight schools and simulation centers, and offers a price reduced version for home users who order online. Custom and branded versions are possible on request. A 14 day trial is available.

The references page says customers are in 153 countries. Named users include Virtual Fly, whose Cessna Caravan 208 simulator uses it as an AATD approved instructor station, Flight Simulations Dresden, EVS Flighttraining Berlin, Flugsportgruppe Zürcher Oberland, SimuTech in New Zealand and Northbound Flight Simulation.
