VOR Navigation Simulator and IFR Procedure Trainer VOR Tracker is a beautifully designed instrument procedure trainer for pilots. You are two taps away from practicing holding patterns, radial interceptions, DME arcs, or two needle tracking in real time wherever you are. Viation Tutorials is a provider of navigational and other aids for flying, and the company recently sent FlightSim.Com a copy of its VOR/NDB simulator. The first thing to say about this package is that it isn't an add-on for a flight simulation package - it is a stand-alone simulation of VORs and NDBs, and the instruments that are used to. The ADF (Automatic Direction Finder) Simulator was designed to demonstrate the approximate indication that an ADF would display with varying positions of an aircraft in relation to certain an NDB (Non-Directional Beacon) type navigational facility.

WELCOME TO FERGO IFR SIMULATOR

CONTROLS:

  • Up/Down - Throttle control
  • Left/Right - Turn plane
  • Space - Stop plane movement
  • Home - Stop plane turn
  • R - Reset plane
  • Mouse wheel - Rotate HDG/OBS knob ±1 degree
  • Shift + Mouse wheel - Rotate HDG/OBS knob ±5 degrees
  • Left click (hold) - Move NAVAID or plane
  • Left click (click) - Set the clicked frequency as standby

BASIC USAGE:

Fergo IFR allows you to simulate VOR and ADF aircraft navigation. You can add as many VOR and NDB station as desired by clicking the 'Add VOR' and 'Add NDB' buttons at the top. The station will be assigned a random ID and frequency. The frequency can be changed by clicking over its value on the NAVAIDs sidebar. You can also change the station position by clicking and dragging its icon. To remove a station, simply click the red trashcan icon on the sidebar. You can also press the 'Clear all' button to remove all NAVAIDs at once.

The ADF and VOR instruments will only become alive after a valid frequency is tuned in the radio panel (sidebar). To tune a certain frequency you type the value in the standby channel and transfer it to the active channel. You can also set the standby frequency by clicking on the NAVAID list or the number shown in the viewport, next to the station's icon.

Fergo IFR considers all VOR as VOR-DME, so if you tune to a valid VOR frequency, your distance will also be shown in the radio panel. The distance is only approximate and considers 1 degree = 111 km, which is only really valid if your at the equator.

At the moment, cone of confusion and signal strength are not simulated.

MISSION:

Mission mode can be played by clicking the 'Mission' button. This will clear all current NAVAIDs.

In mission mode, the simulator will randomly generate a few NAVAIDs and hide them from your view. Your objective is to navigate to each NAVAID following the sequence shown on the sidebar, tuning the frequencies in the appropriate radio. When crossing the NAVAID, the item on the sidebar will turn green, indicating that you can now proceed to the next NAVAID. If desired, you can also 'give up' and reveal the mission by clicking the 'Reveal' button.

This mode is useful for practicing IFR navigation with no other 'visual' aids.

OPTIONS:

  • Show compass - Displays a compass around the aircraft icon.
  • Auto turn - When checked, will keep the plane turning even after releasing the left/right keys. To align the plane back, either counter-turn or hit the 'Home' key.
  • Fixed ADF - When checked, ADF compass have to be manually set using the HDG knob. When unchecked, the ADF compass will link to the regular compass and rotate automatically.
  • Show helper lines - Shows additional lines and vectors that can be useful when learning how to operate the VOR and ADF instruments.

LOADING NAVAIDs

Fergo IFR allows you to load VORs and NDBs from text, which should be pasted into the 'Load' dialog. Encounters from africa short stories pdf. This is useful for recreating real scenarios. The NAVAIDs should be in the following format:

Type;ID;Frequency;Latitude;Longitude

The 'Load' dialog also allows you to draw additional graphics. With this option, you can easily add additional information to the map such as coastlines, lakes, runways, or any other type of graphics. To add additional lines, the following format must be used:

LINE;Y1;X1;Y2;X2;Color;Thickness

Vor

The definition and expected input of each column is shown below:

  • Type - VOR or NDB
  • ID - Alphanumeric ID
  • Frequency - XXX.XX (VOR) or XXX.0 (NDB)enter code here
  • Latitude/Y1/Y2 - Floating point number from -90.0 to +90.
  • Longitude/X1/X2 - Floating point number from -180.0 to +180.0
  • Color - Hexadecimal RGB color in the format 0xRRGGBB
  • Thickness - Integer representing the line thickness
