[FSC X-Plane compatibility]

Fsc works fine with x-plane and xpuipc.

Only problem is x-plane has more airports than fsx so they won't show in fsc.

Obviously you need to have had msfs installed at some time for the database.

I no longer have msfs installed so can't upgrade to fsc v9

An ability to read x-plane apt-nav database would be nice :)

The x-plane apt-nav database is the same one used in flightgear and is open source.

[FSC works with x-plane!]

Did anyone else know this?

I just "discovered" xuipc (fsuipc for x-plane) and the first thing I tried with it was FSC and it works fine and dandy over a network!

Obviously it is using the FSX database so a lot of airports that are in x-plane are not there at all but that's about the only hiccup I have found. I haven't tried sending frequencies or hooking it up to autopilot ( I never use these features) and I doubt whether they would work. But as a flight planner and moving map it's perfect! I wonder how much work it would take to be able to read the x-plane database? Might be worth looking into ? FSC is obviously windows only so that puts the mac heads out of the picture but I believe a lot of x- plane users are on windows and a growing number (including me) have had enough of FSX and swapped over.

Food for thought
