Skylight is an open-source project that turns a ceiling into a real-time visual map of aircraft passing overhead. It decodes ADS-B signals from an RTL-SDR radio or can use a web API for testing without radio hardware. The system renders planes onto a ceiling-pointed projector so nearby aircraft appear to move across the room as they move through the sky. It also adds a live sky layer with the sun, moon, stars, constellations, planets, satellites, and the ISS based on the user’s location and time. ...

...FlightGear is used all over the world by desktop flight simulator enthusiasts, for research in universities and for interactive exhibits in museums. FlightGear features more than 400 aircraft, a worldwide scenery database, a multi-player environment, detailed sky modelling, a flexible and open aircraft modelling system, varied networking options, multiple display support, a powerful scripting language and an open architecture. Best of all, being open-source, the simulator is owned by the community and everyone is encouraged to contribute.

...This program permits you to convert curves and points created in CAD program into coordinates in text file or you can do the opposite - convert text files into curves. It is especially suitable for curves described by hundreds of coordinates, e.g. airfoil contours of aircraft wings. Output filename is either out.txt or out.igs.

One of the problems faced by modellers is matching their available paint colours to those used on the object (eg aircraft) being modelled. The aim of this toolkit is to help them in this endeavour including assistance in mixing paints to achieve the required match if required. Non Windows Versions 1.00 and later require: - Python 3.43 or later - python3-gobject 3.22.0 or later - python3-cairo 1.10.0 or later Windows Versions 1.00 or later require: - Python 3.4.3 - PyGI 3.18.2 AIO for Python 3.4.3

...Moreover some fictional liveries are not available in FlightGear's official livery databese. So this project has the intention to provide a place where all liveries for this wonderful aircraft are located at one place. Feel free to contact me via the FlightGear forum

Flightdeck-UI is a project that utilizes the ideas from the design of aircraft controls and instruments for creating computer user interfaces, such as for monitoring.

Python scripts for Blender to import and export YSFlight files (.srf, .dnm, .fld, .yfs)

The project aims to identify a simple and low cost eddy current probe that can be interfaced directly to ordinary linux systems and develop software to record data and identify hidden corrosion on aircraft during their mandated annual inspections.

This project is developing avionics for use in experimental aircraft. Systems under development with OpenGL include EFIS, NAV and EIS systems.

autopilot is a command and control system for helicopters (and can be extended for fixed wing aircraft). It provides a three-axis EFIS and moving map on the ground station. The unmanned aerial robot has instrumentation for attitude, engine and position.
