OpenEagle provides interfacing to Flightgear to create a synthetic view of the flight using a Garmin G5 EFIS, and other instruments to display the flight at 10hz. The system also includes tools to make and use browser based moving maps from the FAA sectional "tif" files free to download. OpenEagle replaces NAV, and FIX databases in Flightgear with current FAA data. FAA Special rules airspace such as Class B,C, and D, and MOA's et al are displayed in the synthetic view using translucent boundaries in the scene. See the intro video sample of the special flight rule area over the Grand Canyon.

Features

  • Real time display of flight data in a synthetic vision view and web FAA Sectional charts
  • Teaches how to use Flightgear socket protocol system transmit sensor data to Flightgear
  • Provides a means of recording flight instrumentation for a flight.
  • A means for marking start and stop codes in data stream to seperate flight test data for analysis.
