This utility allows you to emulate the training habits of professional pilots.
As an airline pilot with 15 years experience and a huge fan of Microsoft's Flight Simulator. I wanted to develop a tool that provides repetitive professional simulator training for the highly-sophisticated aircraft that are modelled in FSX and P3D.
I found it frustrating that after landing - in order to fly another approach - you must: reposition the aircraft on the ground, re-program the FMS, re-configure the whole aircraft, take off again, and fly the circuit - all of which takes another 15 minutes of your valuable time in order to be able to set up another practice approach. Therefore, I developed FSiPanel, so that it only takes you a few seconds to set up each detailed practice approach, just like the professionals!

FSiPanel allows you to use a simple but powerful 'point-and-click' instructor panel (on a stand-alone PC or server) to repeat approaches and landings training.
FSiPanel will position your aircraft at the following positions:• Final approach from any distance.
• Downwind leg
• Base leg
• Vectors (30° or 45° intercept)
• 10'000, 20'000 or 30'000 ft in cruise.
• On an Airport STAR (Standard Terminal Arrival Route)
• On runway threshold for a traffic pattern.
Supported aircraft
FSiPanel is designed to help you train your high end aircraft the same way as we train in the airline environment.
FSiPanel will support the major high end aircraft and more aircraft will be added based on users request.

About the Developer, Jean-Pierre Garraio:
"I started my career as airline pilot in 1998 with a Swiss regional airline called Crossair flying the Saab 2000.
In 2002, I joined Swiss Intl Airlines and recently joined a middle east national airline flying as Captain and instructor.
I'm a big fan of flight simulators, reason why I've created this software to allow serious simmers to train sophisticated aircraft as we would train in the airline.
Beta testers
Thank you to my beta testers pilots, they have flown hundreds of approaches in all different possible positions to improve and correct the software."
