Load and visualize a [[JSBsim]] [[flight dynamics model]] in [[Blender]] from version 4.2 or newer. Older versions (2.8, 3.x) are supported but not recommended.

'''JSBSim Viewer''' lets you import and visualize the spatial layout of JSBSim FDM data. It reads the XML structure and plots the defined nodes, points, and reference locations in 3D space, allowing you to explore the aircraft’s configuration visually.

This is useful for:

* Inspecting the geometric and reference layout of JSBSim aircraft models
* Debugging or understanding FDM XML configurations
* Visualizing how aerodynamic and structural points are positioned relative to each other

==Installation==
'''Install from Blender's extensions menu:'''

# Open Blender → go to Edit → Preferences → Get Extensions.
# Search for "JSBSim Viewer" and click Install.

'''Install from the Blender Extensions website:'''

# Have your Blender open.
# In your internet browser [https://extensions.blender.org/add-ons/io-scene-jsbsim/ visit the extension page] → click in Get Add-on → Drag and Drop into your Blender, and confirm.

'''Install manually as a Blender extension'''<ref>For more information on installing Blender addons, see: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/advanced/extensions/addons.html
</ref>:

# Download the latest zip file for your Blender version. For example: {{github zip file
| proj = RenanMsV
| repo = JSBSim-Viewer
| full = 1
|branch=main}}.
# Open the user preferences window (File → User Preferences or {{key press|Ctrl|Alt|U}}) and then go to the Add-ons tab, click the button "Install from Disk" and select the downloaded file.
# After installing you must activate by going in the search bar below the "Install" button and searching for "JSBSim" and then checking the box on the right of "JSBSim Viewer"

==Usage==

===Interaction===

Go to File->Import->JSBSim Flight Dynamics Model (.xml), select a JSBSim XML file.

== Development ==
Everyone is more than welcome to help sending issues, pull requests in the extension's repository.

== Known problems / Things to add ==

* Add a better way to draw the FDM to the screen. Maybe using Blender's line drawing API. With many colors and icons for specific things such as fuel tanks, engines, etc..

== Bug reports, questions or suggestions ==

* Send me a message in the forum here: {{forum link|title=RenanMsV|type=member|u=20358}}
* Or create a new issue in the addon repository.

Landing Rate addon

2024-02-23T01:33:15Z

RenanMsV: Updating because of new changes made to the addon

{{infobox addon
| name = Landing Rate Addon
| started = October 14, 2017
| desc = Landing Rate - Show your landing stats
| contributors = [[RenanMsV]], Pascal Olin, PlayeRom, Andrea Vezzali, hbeni
| status = Active
| coderepo = {{github source
| user = RenanMsV
| repo = landing_rate
| text = Landing Rate
}}
}}

The '''Landing Rate ''' addon can show your landing stats. Depending on your rate of descent upon touchdown it rates your landing accordingly.

== Features ==

* Rates your landings.
* Can automatically send your landing rate in a message if you are in a multiplayer server.
* It works with most aircraft by default, without the user having to make modifications or configure it.

== How to install Landing Rate addon ==

Extract the zipped landing_rate folder to any place you want.

e.g <code>C:\Users\USERNAME\FlightGear\Addons\landing_rate</code>

{{note|Remember to replace USERNAME with your OS username.}}

From now on you have two options. Either will install it successfully. Choose the one you find easier.

=== Option 1 - Installing from the launcher (recommended) ===

* In the launcher click at the "Add-ons" button.
* Then in the "Add-ons Module folders" section click in the Add button.
* Locate the folder where you have extracted the landing_rate folder and confirm.

Now Landing Rate should appear as an installed add-on.

=== Option 2 - Installing by the command line ===

Add this command line to your FlightGear shortcut:

<code>--addon="C:\Users\USERNAME\FlightGear\Addons\landing_rate"</code>

Do not know how to set command lines? Check here: [[Command_line]]

== Dealing with errors ==

Since each plane is different, for now most aircrafts are compatible. If you're using an incompatible aircraft a message will be shown and the addon will be disabled.

== User settings ==

The settings menu can be found by clicking the Landing Rate option of your menu bar.

=== Send landing stats at multiplayer chat ===

The addon can automatically send your landing rate in a message if you are in a multiplayer server. You can activate it in the addon settings menu.

{{note|This setting will be persistent across sessions. Some pilots may find these messages disturbing, especially if you are at a busy airport. Use with moderation.}}

== For aircraft developers ==

=== Making sure your aircraft is compatible ===

To make the plane compatible, it should initialize and calculate the following properties:
* <code>/accelerations/pilot-gdamped</code>
* <code>/instrumentation/vertical-speed-indicator/indicated-speed-fpm</code>
* <code>/instrumentation/vertical-speed-indicator/indicated-speed-mps</code>

{{note|If any of these properties are missing or if they return nil, the addon will be shut down.}}

The addon also expects your aircraft to have at least one of the following gear properties:
* <code>/gear/gear[0]/wow</code>
* <code>/gear/gear[1]/wow</code>
* <code>/gear/gear[2]/wow</code>

{{note|It might not work as expected if your aircraft has more than 3 gears or if their property ids are greater than 2.}}

=== Overriding landing category limits ===

Its possible that your aircraft needs to override the default rates settings, for example, you can break the gear of the C172p and still get "acceptable" using the default settings.

You can specify addon-hints in your aircraft.xml to override the landing category limits like this:

<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<sim>
<addon-hints>
<landing_rate>
<ranks>
<bad>
<min-fpm>150</min-fpm>
</bad>
</ranks>
</landing_rate>
</addon-hints>
</sim>
</syntaxhighlight>

Valid <code><ranks></code> tags are: <code>bad</code>, <code>acceptable</code>, <code>good</code>, <code>very-good</code>, <code>excellent</code>.

Use <code>fgfs --log-level=debug --log-class=nasal</code> to see what is actually loaded.

Landing Rate addon

RenanMsV: Creating the page

{{infobox addon
| name = Landing Rate Addon
| started = October 14, 2017
| desc = Landing Rate - Show your landing stats
| contributors = [[RenanMsV]], Pascal Olin, PlayeRom, Andrea Vezzali, hbeni
| status = Active
| coderepo = https://github.com/RenanMsV/landing_rate
}}

'''Landing Rate Addon''' can show your landing stats. Depending on your rate of descent on touching the ground it rates your landing accordingly.

== Features ==

* Rates your landings
* Can automatically send your landing rate in a message if you are in a multiplayer server.
* It works with most aircraft by default, without the user having to make modifications or configure it.

== How to install Landing Rate Addon ==

Extract the zipped landing_rate folder to any place you want.

e.g <code>C:\Users\USERNAME\FlightGear\Addons\landing_rate</code>

Remember to replace USERNAME with your OS username.

From now on you have two options. Either will install it successfully. Choose the one you find easier.

=== Option 1 - Installing from the launcher (recommended) ===

* In the launcher click at the "Add-ons" button.
* Then in the "Add-ons Module folders" section click in the Add button.
* Locate the folder where you have extracted the landing_rate folder and confirm.

Now Landing Rate should appear as an installed add-on.

=== Option 2 - Installing by the command line ===

Add this command line to your FlightGear shortcut:

<code>--addon="C:\Users\USERNAME\FlightGear\Addons\landing_rate"</code>

Do not know how to set command lines? Check here: [[Command_line]]

== Dealing with errors ==

Since each plane is different, for now most aircrafts are compatible. If you're using an incompatible aircraft a message will be show. And the addon will be disabled.

== User settings ==

=== Share landing stats at multiplayer chat ===

If you want, you can activate it, and it will automatically send your landing rate in a message if you are in a multiplayer server.
To enable it go to landing_rate folder and open addon-config.xml. Find sharemp line.

<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<sharemp>0</sharemp>
</syntaxhighlight>

Change sharemp value (1 for yes and 0 for no). Restart your simulator. Done.

Note that some pilots may find these messages disturbing, especially if you are at a busy airport.

== For aircraft developers ==

=== Making sure your aircraft is compatible ===

To make the plane compatible, it should initialize and calculate the following properties:
* <code>/accelerations/pilot-gdamped</code>
* <code>/instrumentation/vertical-speed-indicator/indicated-speed-fpm</code>
* <code>/instrumentation/vertical-speed-indicator/indicated-speed-mps</code>

=== Overriding landing category limits ===

Its possible that your aircraft needs to override the default rates settings, for example, you can break the gear of the C172p and still get "acceptable" using the default settings.

You can specify addon-hints in your aircraft.xml to override the landing category limits like this:

<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<sim>
<addon-hints>
<landing_rate>
<ranks>
<bad>
<min-fpm>150</min-fpm>
</bad>
</ranks>
</landing_rate>
</addon-hints>
</sim>
</syntaxhighlight>

Valid <code><ranks></code> tags are: <code>bad</code>, <code>acceptable</code>, <code>good</code>, <code>very-good</code>, <code>excellent</code>.

Use <code>fgfs --log-level=debug --log-class=nasal</code> to see what is actually loaded.

Canvas HUD

2023-03-27T13:13:46Z

RenanMsV: Added a note about how Canvas requires a uv-mapped surface to be displayed. I think this must be there since I spent some time trying to debug why it was not working, only to realize I forgot to add a uv-map to it.

{{stub}}
[[File:Canvas - C-130J basic HUD.jpg|thumb|C-130J basic HUD]]
{{Template:Canvas Navigation}}

{{cquote|Moving the HUD to use the Canvas would be a great step from my point of view, since it and 2D panels (which I am happy to write the convert for!) are the last places besides the UI which make raw OpenGL calls, and hence would benefit from moving to the Canvas (and thus, to use OSG internally)|[http://www.mail-archive.com/flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg38629.html James Turner (Mon, 05 Nov 2012)]}}

Rendering a basic HUD with a Canvas.

{{note|For correct rendering (with [[Project_Rembrandt|Rembrandt deferred rendering]]) you need to register the HUD as [[Project_Rembrandt#Registering_all_translucent_surfaces|transparent surface]].
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">

{{note|Canvas requires the 3D model of the HUD to be UV-Mapped and have a texture applied to it. This texture can be a 1x1 pixels empty and transparent texture. Canvas will then replace the texture at runtime with all the dynamic content generated by it after you use addPlacement. Alternatively if you dont have a texture applied you can specify the texture when you do addPlacement:

Virtual airlines

2023-02-03T02:15:53Z

RenanMsV: Just to let people know what happened to LATAMv. Yes I am late.

A '''virtual airline''' (VA) is a dedicated hobby organization that uses flight simulation to model the operations of an airline. Virtual airlines generally have a presence on the internet, similar to a real airline. There are over 100 virtual airlines of significance currently active in the internet (supporting a number of flightsims), with thousands of participants involved at any one time each using different simulator platforms.

== Purpose ==
Virtual airlines were started to give a sense of purpose to activities conducted within a flight simulator. This basic premise has evolved over time, along with available technology, to provide increasing levels of immersion but always with the same core purpose. When combined with increasingly powerful personal computers, advancing flight simulation software, and communications networks, virtual airlines are often able to provide compelling, realistic, experiences similar to operations inside a real airline. Virtual airlines also provide an avenue for members to gain access to additional content, such as aircraft and scenery, for use with their simulator. The appeal varies; for younger members, virtual airlines provide a sandbox environment where they can experience the corporate environment of commercial business in the airline industry, without the risk of financial loss. These organizations also provide an outlet for those who are interested in aviation but unable to fly themselves in real life due to financial, health, or other reasons.
Most of all, its one step closer to enthusiasts feeling more involved in an airline environment and share their interests with others.
Virtual Airlines also benefit the flight simulator community by providing valuable services such as ATC, events, and general help and knowledge.

== Common elements ==
There are several elements that are common across many virtual airlines:
* A website as the focal point of the community
* Internet forum where discussion and social interaction can occur
* Customized livery that users can download together with aircraft and install in their flight simulator
* Route schedules for members to fly in their simulators
* Multiplayer events, often on a game network such as VATSIM or IVAO
* Less common elements include:
** An Online database for recording and reporting flights and membership statistics
** Dedicated game server hosting to provide private areas for members to complete flights
** Award, rank and recognition systems
** Voice over Internet Protocol servers for members to communicate freely by voice

|History = Flight Unlimited originated with the formation of Flight Unlimited Virtual Airlines in January of 2011. The original idea was to create a virtual airlines without limits; fly anything, anywhere, anytime. This led to explosive growth and we were able to attract a totally unique leadership team.

As time progressed, the staff and pilots met on Teamspeak and decided that we wanted to make a course correction. While flying without limited was fun, there wasn't them same sense of accomplishment after putting in hundreds of hours as some pilots find at the airlines structured on real-world operations. That meeting was where the Flight Unlimited Community concept was born.

Today we are a strong community of Flight Simulation Enthusiasts that take it to the next level everyday. By networking together multiple unique Virtual Airlines, we are able to provide our membership with the services normally only found in significantly larger virtual airlines. This unique formula allows our pilots and staff to enjoy virutally unlimited opportunities for advancement within the community at large.

Our community of pilots are able to go to a unified job-posting board to see what positions are available at every Virtual Airline and then use their current Virtual Pilot Stats to submit an application for the position. This means that you don't have to wait for a position to open up at Cathay Pacific Virtual as a Cathay Pacific pilot, but rather take a look at Caribbean Airlines Virtual or Japan Airlines Virtual for the opportunity to advance at your own pace. This doesn't only apply to pilots but also mid-level management.

Pilots and management looking to move up through the ranking structure have the opportunity to one day become CEO's themselves, which make a Flight Unlimited Virtual Airline a truly unique place to fly and develop into the Virtual Aviation leaders of tomorrow.

Howto:Syntax highlighting for Nasal

2022-11-17T15:13:00Z

RenanMsV: The Visual Studio Code extension changed its name

There's '''[[Nasal]] syntax-highlighting''' support available for some editors, which is a big advantage, as it makes Nasal coding much easier.

Syntax highlighting can often point to syntax errors and so reduce the number of tedious time-consuming and unproductive [[FlightGear]] runs. It can also be a sort of "guide" to the language, highlighting functions or keywords that are builtin, so you can quickly check if it is "type" or "typeof" by typing each. In addition makes understanding other people's code easier, since you have all of the parts visually separated out, like loops, strings, constants, and builtin functions.

== Atom ==
Script is available from [https://github.com/www2000/atom-language-nasal Github] and can also be found in the [https://atom.io/packages/language-nasal Atom's packages repository].

Manual installation:

# Download the latest release from https://github.com/www2000/atom-language-nasal
# Unpack the tar.bz2
# Copy/move the language-nasal package to ~/.atom/packages

For installation from atom's packages repository:

# Open Atom
# Go to Preferences Edit -> Preferences or {{key press|Ctrl|+}},
# Click on packages and search for nasal
# Click install for Language Nasal

== Emacs ==
[[File:Emacs-nasal-syntax-highlighting.png|400px|thumb|Nasal syntax highlighting in GNU Emacs]]

There is a Emacs major mode for Nasal available here: https://github.com/andyross/nasal/blob/master/misc/nasal-mode.el

Under Linux just drop the file where you have the rest of your manually installed packages and add the following to your .emacs file:
<nowiki>(require 'nasal-mode)</nowiki>

If you don't have a directory to place your manually installed packages, put the file in the directory ''~/.emacs.d/lisp/'' (create it if it doesn't exist) and then put the following in your .emacs file before the ''require'':
<nowiki>;; Tell emacs where is your personal elisp lib dir
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/lisp/")</nowiki>

Reload .emacs via <code>'''M-x''' load-file</code> or by restarting Emacs.

== Geany ==

A syntax highlighting solution for [https://www.geany.org/ Geany], a lean text editor/IDE is available from [https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=36838#p360677 this thread] in the FlightGear forum.

== gedit ==
[[File:Philosopher's nasal highlighting in gEdit.jpeg|400px|thumb|Screen shot illustrating syntax highlighting in gedit]]

'''Philosopher''' on the FlightGear Forum has created syntax highlighting for gedit, a popular and simple text editor for Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows.


To install, copy the ''nasal.lang'' file  from the first post of the forum topic {{forum link|p=164133}} and:

* If you use Mac, move it into your ''Applications/gedit/Contents/Resources/share/gtksourceview-X.0/language specs'' folder.
* For Linux, move it into your ''/usr/share/gtksourceview-X.0/language-specs'' folder.

In the same post given above, there are instructions for how to edit ''xml.lang'' (in the same directory) to add the embedded XML content support (with this minor edit, Nasal highlighting will be used inside of certain tags, instead of plain text).

For "snippets" support, nasal.xml from the above post has to be moved into ''/usr/share/gedit/plugins/snippets/'' folder or installed using the "import" feature. See this image for more details:

[[:File:Install nasal snippets in gedit.png|how to import Nasal snippets]].
{{-}}

== jEdit ==
There's a syntax highlighting mode for jEdit, programmer's text editor

Included are some of Nasal's internal functions and those functions currently implemented in NasalSys.cxx
To use, add the content of the catalog inside your own catalog (do NOT overwrite the file) and nasal.xml in /home/USER/.jedit/modes

Restart jEdit and you can use it. Current extension is .nas, you can add your own extension and functions.
This mode is heavily based on the Javascript mode.

Get it here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/fgscheduleview/files/jedit/catalog.zip/download

== KDE Editors ==
There's a highlighting definition for nasal available at '''opendesktop.org''' (https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1187022/)

Download the file and copy it into:
:~/.kde4/share/apps/katepart/syntax/ (for KDE4)
:or
:~/.local/share/katepart5/syntax/ (for KF5 pre 5.29)
:or
:~/.local/share/org.kde.syntax-highlighting/syntax/ (for current KF5 versions)

(you can create the folders if they don't exist yet).

Note that the syntax highlighting in KDE doesn't set colors, it just identifies structural elements, colors are defined by the '''schemas''' used by each editor, thus you get consistent highlighting between different languages.

The highlighting file should work with all editors based on the katepart: KWrite, Kate, and the editor component of KDevelop.

== Notepad++ ==
[[File:Highlight parse.png|400px|thumb|Screenshot of Nasal support for Notepad++]]
Provides comprehensive syntax highlighting and a function list parser with support for hierarchical display of both inline and out-of-body class member functions.
* [http://github.com/Slaiyer/nasal-npp GitHub repository for download and instructions]

'''Alternative (syntax highlighting only):'''
* [http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1463693/nasal.xml Download here]
** [http://superuser.com/questions/62474/notepad-custom-syntax-highlighting-setting-where-to-look-for-it Instructions are here]
{{-}}

== Sublime Text 2 ==
[[File:Sublime Text 2 syntax highlighting.png|400px|thumb|Sublime Text 2 syntax highlighting]]

Scripts and installation instructions are here: https://github.com/freevryheid/nasal
{{-}}

== Vim ==
[[File:Vim-nasal-syntax-highlighting.png|400px|thumb|Screen shot illustrating syntax highlighting in Vim]]

One such editor is the free vim or its GUI variant gvim.

It's not for everyone but it's free, and testing it doesn't hurt: http://www.vim.org/.

The syntax definition file comes with the FlightGear code ({{flightgear file|scripts/syntax/nasal.vim}}). Highlighting works even for Nasal embedded in XML files (type ":set ft=nasal", where ft stands for file-type)

Here's an example, which demonstrates a short code segment with three syntax errors as well as the highlighting of a matching pair of parentheses (yellow) and trailing spaces (blue x). (The leading blue dots aren't on by default. They help to spot tab crimes.)
{{-}}

== Visual Studio Code ==
[[File:Vscode-sintaxhighlight.jpg|thumb|Screen shot illustrating syntax highlighting in VSCode]]

[https://code.visualstudio.com Visual Studio Code] is a source-code editor developed by Microsoft for Windows, Linux and macOS. Its open source and free.

The nasal extension is available from [https://github.com/RenanMsV/nasal-vscode Github] and can also be found in the [https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Renan-MsV.nasal-lang VSCode's marketplace].
It supports basic syntax highlighting and snippets to improve development speed.

For installation from the marketplace:

# Open VSCode
# Go to File -> Preferences -> Extensions or {{key press|Ctrl|Shift|X}},
# Search for nasal
# Click install for Nasal Language (FlightGear)

Manual installation:

# Download the latest release from the repository, it should be a .vsix file.
# Install the extension manually by doing the command 'code --install-extension path_to_extension.vsix'

{{-}}

== Other editors ==
Nasal being syntactically very close to other programming languages like C, Php or JavaScript, you can get some usable highlighting even without real Nasal support:

* TextMate {{forum link|hilit=syntax+nasal|p=127828}}
* SciTe {{forum link|hilit=syntax+nasal|p=94521}}

== FlightGear Wiki ==
{{Note|As of 02/2016, we do not currently have a dedicated Nasal module available [http://wiki.flightgear.org/FlightGear_wiki:Village_pump/Archive_2016#Nasal_Syntaxhighlighting]}}
{{main article|Help:Formatting#Syntax highlighting}}

Using the <syntaxhighight> tag with a lang="nasal" attribute, we can have highlighting right here on the wiki. Use enclose="div" to wrap the text, if it happens to be particularly wide.

<nowiki><syntaxhighlight lang="nasal">
# hello.nas
print('Hello World!');
</syntaxhighlight></nowiki>

Which renders into:
<syntaxhighlight lang="nasal">
# hello.nas
print('Hello World!');
</syntaxhighlight>

== Syntax highlighting test ==
Just a collection of keywords, etc. to test whether highlighting works (you can copy this to test your own highlighting):
<syntaxhighlight lang="nasal">
# this is a comment
# operators (if applicable):
!a ? a+b - c/d*e : f~g; expr1 and expr2 or expr3;
# Builtin functions, strings
print('Hello World!');
die("We have an error, Houston!", arg[0]);
cmdarg().getNode("setting").getValue();
streq(typeof(id(keys(hash))),10);
# Loopoids
foreach (var a; ["haha", {command:"NASAL!"}, me]) {
if(0) break;
elsif(1) continue;
else return;
while(1) sprintf("%s%s\n%s=%f", "Spam", "spam", "spam", 0e-0);
for (var i=0; i < 0.00; i += 0x0) printf("%d", int(i));
forindex(var o; a) (func {
var o = o;
setlistener("/", func print(o), 1, 2);
})();
}
# String escaping stress tests:
'\a\b\c\"\\\?' # none of these
"\e\?\'\f\a" # none of these
'\'' # this one
"\"\r\n\t\\\t" # and all of these
# And optionally string formatting:
"%s%%s%.0f%8d" # the second "s" shouldn't be highlighted, otherwise everything else
# Syntax error!:
%$@&^|\`
</syntaxhighlight>

* SciTe {{forum link|hilit=syntax+nasal|p=94521}}

== FlightGear Wiki ==
{{Note|As of 02/2016, we do not currently have a dedicated Nasal module available [http://wiki.flightgear.org/FlightGear_wiki:Village_pump/Archive_2016#Nasal_Syntaxhighlighting]}}
{{main article|Help:Formatting#Syntax highlighting}}

Using the <syntaxhighight> tag with a lang="nasal" attribute, we can have highlighting right here on the wiki. Use enclose="div" to wrap the text, if it happens to be particularly wide.

<nowiki><syntaxhighlight lang="nasal">
# hello.nas
print('Hello World!');
</syntaxhighlight></nowiki>

Which renders into:
<syntaxhighlight lang="nasal">
# hello.nas
print('Hello World!');
</syntaxhighlight>

== Syntax highlighting test ==
Just a collection of keywords, etc. to test whether highlighting works (you can copy this to test your own highlighting):
<syntaxhighlight lang="nasal">
# this is a comment
# operators (if applicable):
!a ? a+b - c/d*e : f~g; expr1 and expr2 or expr3;
# Builtin functions, strings
print('Hello World!');
die("We have an error, Houston!", arg[0]);
cmdarg().getNode("setting").getValue();
streq(typeof(id(keys(hash))),10);
# Loopoids
foreach (var a; ["haha", {command:"NASAL!"}, me]) {
if(0) break;
elsif(1) continue;
else return;
while(1) sprintf("%s%s\n%s=%f", "Spam", "spam", "spam", 0e-0);
for (var i=0; i < 0.00; i += 0x0) printf("%d", int(i));
forindex(var o; a) (func {
var o = o;
setlistener("/", func print(o), 1, 2);
})();
}
# String escaping stress tests:
'\a\b\c\"\\\?' # none of these
"\e\?\'\f\a" # none of these
'\'' # this one
"\"\r\n\t\\\t" # and all of these
# And optionally string formatting:
"%s%%s%.0f%8d" # the second "s" shouldn't be highlighted, otherwise everything else
# Syntax error!:
%$@&^|\`
</syntaxhighlight>

Howto:Implement generic tyre smoke

2019-05-30T11:21:04Z

RenanMsV: Added missing rain splash effect

[[File:Tyre smoke 727-230.jpg|thumb|270px|Tyre smoke, as seen on a [[Boeing 727-230]] at touchdown.]]
'''Tyre smoke''' often refers to the smoke that is visible when an [[aircraft]] touches down. This arises when stationary wheels hit the ground at high speeds; a little layer of rubber is burned due to the friction between the tyre and the runway.

Following this [[:Category:Howto|howto]], you will be able to add tyre smoke when landing and spray when it is raining to your aircraft. The here explained method works with both [[YASim]] and [[JSBSim]].

The examples below are for a 3-point-gear, but you can use more gears of course!

=== Nasal/tyresmoke.nas ===

Create a folder in <tt>[[$FG ROOT]]/Aircraft/''YourAircraft''</tt> called ''Nasal'', if not already there.
Create a file called tyresmoke.nas with the following lines inside:

<syntaxhighlight>
#============================ Tyre Smoke ===================================
aircraft.tyresmoke_system.new(0, 1, 2);
#============================ Rain ===================================
aircraft.rain.init();
# == making the timer ==
var raintimer = maketimer(0,
func(){
aircraft.rain.update();
}
);
# == fire it up ===
raintimer.start();
# end
</syntaxhighlight>

Pass the indices of gears you would like to produce smoke.

=== -set.xml ===
At the bottom of the file, add the link to the nasal-file, between the <nasal> and </nasal> tags. Do not place them between the <sim>-tags!

<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<tyresmoke>
<file>Aircraft/''YourAircraft''/Nasal/tyresmoke.nas</file>
</tyresmoke>
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Models/model.xml ===
Insert the following lines into the .xml file that contains your aircraft's animations, in your Models/ folder and change the ccordinates so it matches with your gear.
This are examples for a 3-point-gear- it links to the Aircraft/Generic/Effects-folder.

You can create of course your own Effect-file if you want. Just regard the correct link!

<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<model>
<path>Aircraft/Generic/Effects/tyre-smoke-nose.xml</path>
<name>tyre-smoke-n</name>

Howto:Using osm2city.py on Windows

2019-05-22T19:34:19Z

RenanMsV: Fix osm2city parameters url

This is a guide for Windows use of osm2city:

== Preparation ==
=== Database ===
First, I downloaded Enterprise DB's version of PostgreSQL from: https://www.enterprisedb.com/downloads/postgres-postgresql-downloads
I tested version 9.6 for Windows 64.

I will use the 'super-user' "postgres" and port 5432.

After installation, I launched the Stack Builder app included and I then installed PostGIS 2.5 under Spatial Extensions:
[[File:TlvSqd4.png|900px]]

After installation was finished, I then got PGAdmin 4 from https://www.pgadmin.org/download/ - this helps for managing databases (although I use commandline for most operations).

=== Python ===
Next, using Python 3.7 I installed these:
* descartes
* matplotlib
* networkx
* numpy (on Windows you need Numpy+MKL)
* pil (Pillow)
* pyproj
* requests
* scipy
* shapely
* psycopg2-binary

My pip freeze output:
C:\Users\redpa> pip freeze
* certifi==2018.11.29
* chardet==3.0.4
* cycler==0.10.0
* Cython==0.28.5
* decorator==4.3.0
* descartes==1.1.0
* ez-setup==0.9
* idna==2.8
* kiwisolver==1.0.1
* matplotlib==3.0.1
* networkx==2.2
* numpy==1.14.6+mkl
* Pillow==5.3.0
* psycopg2==2.7.6
* psycopg2-binary==2.7.6
* pyparsing==2.3.0
* pyproj==1.9.5.1
* PyQt5==5.10.1
* pyshp==1.2.12
* python-dateutil==2.7.5
* requests==2.21.0
* scipy==1.1.0
* Shapely==1.6.4.post1
* sip==4.19.8
* six==1.11.0
* urllib3==1.24.1

Though, maybe not all of these are needed, some may be for other things; regardless that is all the modules installed on my system. Some packages did not work properly with pip; I got those from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/, installing using the "wheel" file

=== Environment Variables ===
Then, in Environment Variables (search for Edit System Environment Variables on Windows 10 and hit on the bottom right "Environment Variables") I made sure PostgreSQL was in my PATH, which it was:

[[File:DUYP3c1.png|600px]]

Then added FG_ROOT manually:

[[File:OOnYuie.png|600px]]

=== Installing OSM2City tools ===
Next, I installed osm2city and osm2city-data from https://gitlab.com/fg-radi/osm2city-data and https://gitlab.com/fg-radi/osm2city. Both were installed in a new folder Documents/FlightGear/osm2city-work.

Under that folder I also created a "projects" folder.

Next, I installed osmosis from [https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis/Quick_Install_(Windows)] and installed in osm2city-work.

== Creating and Loading Database ==
Then, opening a CMD window, I created a database: this time I will make OSM scenery for Jan Mayen (a convenient tiny area).

<code>
createdb --encoding=UTF8 --owner=postgres --username=postgres janmayen

psql --username=postgres --dbname=janmayen -c "CREATE EXTENSION postgis;"

psql --username=postgres --dbname=janmayen -c "CREATE EXTENSION hstore;"

psql --username=postgres -d janmayen -f "C:\Users\redpa\Documents\FlightGear\osm2city-work\osmosis\script\pgsnapshot_schema_0.6.sql"

psql --username=postgres -d janmayen -f"C:\Users\redpa\Documents\FlightGear\osm2city-work\osmosis\script\pgsnapshot_schema_0.6_bbox.sql"</code>

Then, downloading data from http://download.geofabrik.de/, navigating to Europe -> Norway and downloading the .pbf file: norway-latest.osm.pbf

I cropped it with osmosis as such:

<code>
cd Documents/FlightGear/osm2city-work/osmosis/bin/

osmosis --read-pbf file="C:/Users/redpa/Downloads/norway-latest.osm.pbf" --bounding-box completeWays=yes top=71.3 left=-9.5 bottom=70.7 right=-7.5 --write-pbf file="C:/Users/redpa/Downloads/norway-cropped.pbf"
</code>

Note that this can take up to ten - fifteen minutes.
I used TerraGUI to get the coordinates, but any method will work.

And finally loaded it to the database:

<code>osmosis --read-pbf file="C:/Users/redpa/Downloads/norway-cropped.pbf" --log-progress --write-pgsql database=janmayen host=localhost:5432 user=postgres password=YOURPW</code>

and indexed the database:

<code>psql --username=postgres --dbname=janmayen -c "CREATE INDEX idx_nodes_tags ON nodes USING gist(tags);"

psql --username=postgres --dbname=janmayen -c "CREATE INDEX idx_ways_tags ON ways USING gist(tags);"

psql --username=postgres --dbname=janmayen -c "CREATE INDEX idx_relations_tags ON relations USING gist(tags);"
</code>

== Running osm2city ==
Next I create the params.ini file. For my purposes it is this - modify it according to docs at https://osm2city.readthedocs.io/en/latest/parameters.html

I ended up with:
<code>PREFIX = "JanMayen"

PATH_TO_SCENERY = "C:\\Users\\redpa\\Documents\\FlightGear\\TerraSync-b"

PATH_TO_OUTPUT = "C:\\Users\\redpa\\Documents\\FlightGear\\Custom Scenery\\JanMayen-OSM-fg-CustomScenery"

C2P_PROCESS_OVERHEAD_LINES = True

C2P_PROCESS_AERIALWAYS = True

C2P_PROCESS_STREETLAMPS = False

This goes in projects/JanMayen/params.ini
Also, create the folder where you want osm2city to generate files - in my case: Documents/FlightGear/Custom Scenery/JanMayen-OSM-fg-CustomScenery

Then, finally,
<code>cd ../../projects

C:\Users\redpa\Documents\FlightGear\osm2city-work\osm2city\build_tiles.py -f JanMayen/params.ini -b *-9.5_70.7_-7.5_71.38 -p 1</code>

JSBSim Fuel System

2019-05-13T21:58:01Z

RenanMsV: Added how to: Display fuel tank names in the Fuel and Equipment dialog

[[JSBSim]] provides a framework for aerodynamics. This page will attempt to explain how to create fuel and oxidizer tanks for the JSBSim framework.

== FGTank ==
Tanks are a subsection of the Propulsion block.

===Capacity and Contents:===

Tank capacity and contents are measured by weight, not by volume.

===Burn Sequence:===

Each fuel tank has a "priority" value which is used to set the sequence of fuel burn. The priority
can be set in the tank block, and it can also be changed at runtime using the property
"propulsion/tank[n]/priority". A priority of 0 means the tank is closed, and no fuel will be
used from it. By default each tank has a priority of 1, the highest priority.

=== Fuel Temperature: ===

Fuel temperature is calculated using the following assumptions:

Fuel temperature will only be calculated for tanks which have an initial fuel
temperature specified in the configuration file.

The surface area of the tank is estimated from the capacity in pounds. It
is assumed that the tank is a wing tank with dimensions h by 4h by 10h. The
volume of the tank is then 40(h)(h)(h). The area of the upper or lower
surface is then 40(h)(h). The volume is also equal to the capacity divided
by 49.368 lbs/cu-ft, for jet fuel. The surface area of one side can then be
derived from the tank's capacity.

The heat capacity of jet fuel is assumed to be 900 Joules/lbm/K, and the
heat transfer factor of the tank is 1.115 Watts/sq-ft/K.

Fuel temperature is currently not written to the property tree.

=== Fuel Dump: ===

Fuel dumping is handled by the FGPropulsion class. A standpipe can be defined
here for each tank which sets the level of contents (in pounds or kg) which is not dumpable.
Default standpipe level is zero, making all contents dumpable.

Dump rate is set in the propulsion block.

Fuel dumping is triggered with the boolean property "propulsion/fuel_dump".

===Refueling:===

Refueling rate (intended for air refueling) is set in the propulsion block. Default is 6000 lb/min.
Onloading fuel is divided amongst all tanks equally.

Refueling is triggered with the boolean property "propulsion/refuel".

=== Fuel Transfer: ===

Fuel transfer is handled by the FGPropulsion class, however the contents of tanks
may be manipulated directly using the SetContents() function here, or via the property
tree at <tt>propulsion/tank[i]/contents-lbs</tt>, where i is the tank number (Tanks
are automatically numbered, starting at zero, in the order in which they are read in
the aircraft configuration file). The latter method allows one to use a system of FCS
components to control tank contents.

There is also a property <tt>propulsion/tank[i]/external-flow-rate-pps</tt>. Setting
this property to a positive value causes the tank to fill at the rate specified.
Setting a negative number causes the tank to drain. The value is the rate in pounds
of fuel per second. The tank will not fill past 100% full and will not drain below 0%.
Fuel may be transfered between two tanks by setting the source tank's external flow rate
to a negative value and the destination's external flow rate to the same positive value.
Care must be taken to stop fuel flow before the source tank becomes empty to prevent
phantom fuel being created.

RenanMsV: Fixing dead links - added Xsimreviews blog urls from archive.org.

{{Infobox Software
| title = WorldEditor
| image = WorldEditor_EHAM.png
| alt = [[Amsterdam Airport Schiphol|Amsterdam Schiphol]] in WED.
| developedby = Ben Supnik, Cristiano Maggi
| initialrelease = 2007

| os = GNU/Linux, Windows, MacOS X
| website = http://developer.x-plane.com/tools/worldeditor/
| license = [[GNU General Public License]]
}}
'''WorldEditor''' ('''WED''') is a CAD-like graphic editor that lets you create custom airport layouts. It is designed for X-Plane, and works with [[File Formats#apt.dat file|apt.dat]] version 850 and higher.

== Obtaining WorldEditor ==
=== Mac/Windows/Linux ===
Stable WED binaries for Windows, Mac and GNU/Linux can be downloaded from [http://developer.x-plane.com/tools/worldeditor/ developer.x-plane.com]. A development version is available through: [http://developer.x-plane.com/tools/worldeditor/ developer.x-plane.com].

=== Linux ===
If you want to compile the tool for GNU/Linux based operating systems, you should not be afraid of that, since it brings most of its dependencies along, it is not hard. However, some things need to be provided by the user's system:
* binutils and binutils-devel
* [[git]]
* GNU coreutils
* GNU make
* libmpfr-devel
* mesa-libGL-devel and mesa-libGLU-devel
* qt4-devel

Downloading WED's source (about 170 MiB) is done via <tt>git</tt>:
git clone https://github.com/X-Plane/xptools.git
cd xptools

Afterwards WED's dependencies have to be downloaded (about 260 MiB) and compiled. These steps have to be done only once, before compiling WED the first time:
git submodule update --init
cd libs
make -j2
cd ..

Compiling WED:
conf=release_opt make -j2 WED

You may now copy the file <tt>build/Linux/release_opt/WED</tt> to <tt>~/bin</tt> or another location within your $PATH environment variable:
cp build/Linux/release_opt/WED ~/bin

The binary of WorldEditor 1.2 is usable but you have to be careful and save your work often because it could crash and make you lose your work. Note that this binary works only on 64 bit GNU/Linux systems. [http://developer.x-plane.com/tools/worldeditor/ developer.x-plane.com]

== Starting WED for the first time ==
X-Plane itself does not need to be installed before using WED. However, WED will require that you choose the X-Plane folder before it will allow you to do anything. Create a working directory with the following structure before starting WED for the first time.
working directory <-- Pick a name
|--Custom Scenery
|--Global Scenery
|--Resources
|--default scenery
NOTICE: WED looks for this specific directory structure and specific directory names !

Click "Choose X-Plane folder". Select the <tt>working directory</tt> for the X-Plane folder.

MPMap

2018-11-01T21:08:00Z

RenanMsV: Adding http://geoffair.org/fg/map-test2/map-test.html to the list of mpmap providers

:''See [[Howto:Multiplayer]] for how to set-up multiplay.''

[[File:MP_Server.jpg|thumb|270px|A satelite view of the area around [[San Francisco International Airport]].]]
'''MPMap''' is an utility that shows [[aircraft]], flying in the [[FlightGear]] world, on a world map. Besides that it also provides access to navigation data such as [[ILS]] frequencies, runway numbers and fixes. As it makes use of Google Maps, one can choose between map or satellite view.

Currently there is three servers providing MPMap:
*[http://mpmap02.flightgear.org mpmap02]
*[http://mpmap03.flightgear.org mpmap03]
*[http://geoffair.org/fg/map-test2/map-test.html geoffair]

== Using the map ==
* You can minimize this menu dock by clicking on the title (where the "FGMap - server name - pilots: n" is). Click on it again to bring up this menu again.
* The icon at the top right hand corner of the menu box gives you a permanent link to current view of the map, which includes the current zoom level, map type, and pilots that map is following.

[[File:MP_Map_Pilots.jpg|thumb|270px]]
[[File:MP_Map_NAV.jpg|thumb|270px]]
=== Pilots ===
* You can pan to a pilot by clicking on the callsign/name.
* You can "follow" and track a pilot by ticking the checkbox of a pilot. This means that pilot will always be visible on the map. You can follow more than one pilot, and the map will pan and zoom automatically.
* You can filter the pilot list by entering a Part of the Callsign or Aircraft.

=== NAV ===
* You can search for navaids by string using the lookup input field. You could start the lookup by pressing Enter or clicking on the [[File:Mpmap_nav_search.gif|caption]] button after typing in the lookup string.
* Lookup results are shown in the lower part of the menu. You can view and pan to the navaid by clicking on each navaid result.
* You can search for all navaids visible in the current map view by clicking on the [[File:Mpmap_nav_inview.gif|caption]] button.
* For all the lookups, you can select the type of navaids to search for using the six checkboxes below the lookup input field.
* Both the string lookup and current map view lookup has a maximum number for returning navaids.
* You can toggle each type of shown navaid on or off by using the five checkboxes on the bottom right of the menu.
* You can clear all the navaids added from lookups by clicking on the [[File:Mpmap_nav_trash.gif|caption]] button.

[[File:MP_Map_Server.jpg|thumb|270px]]
=== Server ===
* You can select which server the map will be showing from the server dropdown list.
* You can toggle updating of the map using the checkbox provided.
* You can change how often the map will update using the textbox provided.

[[File:MP_Map_Settings.jpg|thumb|270px]]
=== Settings ===
* You can choose how the pilot label will be shown on the map. Currently there are 4 modes:
** off - labels are always off.
** always - labels will be shown for all pilots at any time.
** follow always - labels will only be shown for pilots which are selected for "follow" in the pilot tab.
** mouse over only - labels will only be shown when you move your mouse over the icon of a pilot.
* You can choose how the icon is displayed for each pilot on the map. Currently there are 3 modes:
** normal - a normal red aircraft icon.
** photo - a photographic icon, not available for all aircraft.
** dot - a simple red dot, similiar to a ATC radar.
* You can turn on or off the trails of pilots with the "Pilot trails" checkbox.
* You can turn on or off the "Zoom/Pan to all pilots" mode with the corresponding checkbox. When this mode is enabled, all pilots will be "followed" automatically at all time. That also means any new pilots joining will be followed automatically too.
* You can turn on debug mode of the map with the "Debug" checkbox. When it is turned on a debug tab will be added, showing debugging messages of the map.

== Startup parameters ==
You can specify certain startup parameters for the map. Parameters are passed using standard URL query string. Key and value pairs are appended to the URL like:

[http://mpmap02.flightgear.org/?key1=value1&key2=value2 http://mpmap02.flightgear.org/?key1=value1&key2=value2]

Currently valid keys and values are:
* '''fg_server''' - FG server to use at startup.
** '''server name:''' the name of the server which would be shown in the server selection dropdown list.
** '''server host:''' the host of the server, this could be the host name or the IP address of the server.
** '''admin port:''' the admin port number of the server, this is usually the port you use for FlightGear --multiplay '''plus one'''.
** '''example:''' fg_server=os-devel,postrobot.de,5003
* '''ll''' - Latitude and Longitude (in that order) at startup.
** '''example:''' ll=37.613545,-122.357237
* '''z''' - map zoom level, range 0 - 17, being 0 is the highest zoom level.
** '''example:''' z=0
* '''t''' - map type, m for map, s for satellite, h for hybrid.
** '''example:''' t=s
* '''follow''' - Follow the pilot at startup given its callsign. Multiple follow is allowed.
** '''example:''' follow=pigeon&follow=ampere
* '''pilot_label''' - Set the startup pilot label mode. Valid values are off, always, follows, and mouseover. See the help of the settings tab more info.
** '''example:''' pilot_label=off
* '''icon_mode''' - Set the startup pilot aircraft icon mode. Valid values are normal, photo, and dot. See the help of the settings tab more info.
** '''example:''' icon_mode=dot
* '''menu''' - menu tab to display at startup.
** '''example:''' menu=nav
* '''nomapcontrol''' - Hide Google Map zoom and map mode controls.
* '''nomenu''' - Hide the menu, completely.
* '''menuminimized''' - Have the menu minimized on startup.
* '''update_interval''' - Set the startup map update interval, in seconds.
** '''example:''' update_interval=10

Canvas snippets

2018-03-23T18:55:01Z

RenanMsV: http://otile1.mqcdn.com is offline. Changed for https://maps.wikimedia.org

{{Stub}}
{{-}}
This article is meant to be a collection of self-contained code snippets for doing Nasal/Canvas coding without having to spend too much time working through APIs, documentation and existing code - the idea is to provide snippets that contain comments and explicit assumptions, so that these snippets can be easily adapted by people without necessarily having to be very familiar with Nasal/Canvas coding.

In the long term, we're hoping to grow a library of useful code snippets to cover most use-cases, while also covering more complex scenarios, e.g. using Canvas-specific helper frameworks like [[Canvas MapStructure]], the [[NavDisplay]] or the recent CDU work.

Canvas itself is designed to be front-end agnostic, meaning that it doesn't matter where a Canvas is used/displayed - this is accomplished by so called "placements", which determine where a Canvas texture is shown. Thus, the back-end logic can remain the same usually, so that GUI dialogs may show avionics, but also so that avionics may show GUI widgets, which also applies to HUDs, liveries and even placements within the FlightGear scenery.

We encourage people to use the snippets listed below to get started with Nasal/Canvas coding, but also to provide feedback on extending/improving this article to make it even more accessible and useful. Equally, if you're aware of any Canvas-related efforts that may contain useful code snippets, please do feel free to add those snippets here. Even people who don't have any interest in coding itself are encouraged to get involved by helping test the snippets listed below, for which you only need to the [[Nasal Console]], and while you're at it, please also help provide/update screen shots for each code snippet.

Contributions added to this article should ideally satisfy some requirements:
* be entirely self-contained
* contain good/clear comments
* have pointers/references to related code/use-cases
* make assumptions explicit
* contain screen shots for each example
* avoid overloaded symbol names to ensure that examples can be merged and adapted easily
* dependencies (svg files, images/textures etc) should always be chosen such that snippets always work using $FG_ROOT
* hard-coded assumptions (e.g. texture dimensions in terms of width/height etc) should be encapsulated using variables

{{Canvas Navigation}}

== Creating a standalone Canvas ==

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Screenshot !! Code
|-
| [[Special:UploadWizard|Upload requested]] ||

<syntaxhighlight lang="nasal" enclose="div">
var (width, height) = (512,512);
# Create a standalone Canvas (not attached to any GUI dialog/aircraft etc)
var myCanvas = canvas.new({
"name": "Livery Test", # The name is optional but allow for easier identification
"size": [width, height], # Size of the underlying texture (should be a power of 2, required) [Resolution]
"view": [width, height], # Virtual resolution (Defines the coordinate system of the canvas [Dimensions]
# which will be stretched the size of the texture, required)
"mipmapping": 1 # Enable mipmapping (optional)
});

# set background color
myCanvas.set("background", canvas.style.getColor("bg_color"));

# creating the top-level/root group which will contain all other elements/group
var root = myCanvas.createGroup();

# OPTIONAL: Create a Canvas dialog window to hold the canvas and show that it's working
# the Canvas is now standalone, i.e. continues to live once the dialog is closed!
var window = canvas.Window.new([width,height],"dialog");
window.setCanvas(myCanvas);
</syntaxhighlight>

|}

== Accessing the Canvas Desktop ==
Sometimes you may want to render to the main screen, without creating a separate Canvas window - this can be accomplished by using the Canvas desktop, note that the following example is fully self-contained, i.e. does not require any code to be added to work:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Screenshot !! Code
|-
| [[Special:UploadWizard|Upload requested]] ||
<syntaxhighlight lang="nasal" enclose="div">
var myNode = canvas.getDesktop().createChild("text")
.setText("Hello Canvas Desktop")
.setFontSize(25, 1.0) # font size (in texels) and font aspect ratio
.setColor(1,0,0,1) # red, fully opaque
.setAlignment("center-center") # how the text is aligned to where you place it
.setTranslation(160, 80); # where to place the text
</syntaxhighlight>
|}

== Creating Tooltips ==
== Creating Popups ==
== Creating a Canvas GUI Window ==

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Screenshot !! Code
|-
| [[File:Snippets-canvas-dialog.png|left|thumb|This is what the [[Nasal]]/[[Canvas]] snippet will look like once you pasted it into the [[Nasal Console]] and click "Execute".]] || {{Note|This example uses so called method chaining, if you're not familiar with the concept, please see: [[Object_Oriented_Programming_with_Nasal#More_on_methods:_Chaining|Method Chaining]].}}

== Adding Raster Images ==

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Screenshot !! Code
|-
| [[File:Canvas Snippets-raster image.png|thumb|Canvas snippet demonstrating how to load a raster image]] ||
<syntaxhighlight lang="nasal" enclose="div">

# path is relative to $FG_ROOT (base package)
var path = "Textures/Splash1.png";
# create an image child for the texture
var child = root.createChild("image")
.setFile(path)
.setTranslation(100, 10)
.setSize(130, 130);
</syntaxhighlight>

|}

== Adding Raster Images downloaded on demand ==

The '''path''' could also just as well be a URL, i.e. a raster image retrieved via http - for example, the following snippet is entirely self-contained and can be pasted into the [[Nasal Console]] and directly executed "as is":
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Screenshot !! Code
|-
| [[File:Canvas-raster-images-via-url.png|thumb|screen shot demonstrating how Nasal and Canvas can be used to display raster images downloaded on demand]] ||

# create a new window, dimensions are 400 x 200, using the dialog decoration (i.e. titlebar)
var window = canvas.Window.new([400,200],"dialog");

# adding a canvas to the new window and setting up background colors/transparency
var myCanvas = window.createCanvas().set("background", canvas.style.getColor("bg_color"));

# Using specific css colors would also be possible:
# myCanvas.set("background", "#ffaac0");

# creating the top-level/root group which will contain all other elements/group
var root = myCanvas.createGroup();

# path now a URL
var url = "http://www.worldwidetelescope.org/docs/Images/MapOfEarth.jpg";

# create an image child for the texture
var child=root.createChild("image")
.setFile( url )
.setTranslation(45,22) # centered, in relation to dialog coordinates
.setSize(310,155); # image dimensions
</syntaxhighlight>

|}

== Clipping ==
{{Note|{{FGCquote
|1= Scaling or any other type of transformation or changing the coordinates of individual points is definitely more efficient than clipping (which requires to change the OpenGL clip planes for every rendered object with a different clipping rectangle).
|2= {{cite web

}}
}}
I would suggest to refer to api.nas and look for "clip" and/or "rect" - IIRC, you need to set up a clipping rectangle by setting some kind of "clip" property and setting it to a rect value in the form of rect(...)

== Using the SymbolCache ==
Whenever a symbol may need to be shown/instanced multiple times (possibly using different styling), it makes sense to use caching - otherwise, identical symbols would be treated as separate OpenVG groups, all of which would need to be rasterized/rendedered separately (i.e. 100 identical symbols would be updated/rendered one by one).

Typically, a map may display multiple instances of an otherwise identical symbol (think VOR, NDB, DME etc) - equally, a multiplayer map may showing multiple aircraft symbols at the same time. In these cases, it makes sense to use the SymbolCache framework, which will render symbols into a separate Canvas texture and provide a texture map that can be treated as a lookup map, which even supports styling for otherwise identical symbols. To learn more, please refer to [[Canvas MapStructure#The_SymbolCache|SymbolCache]]

The example shown above uses a fixed symbol/icon cache that is set up while booting Flightgear - sometimes, we may need cache for different purposes. So, let's assume, we need a new/custom cache with a different resolution for each entry in the cache (e.g. 256x256), we can easily accomplish that by setting up a new cache like this:

var mySymbolCache256x256 = canvas.SymbolCache.new(1024,256);

== Customizing MapStructure Styling ==
{{See also|Canvas MapStructure#Styling}}

In general MapStructure symbols contain their own styles using hard-coded defaults, however these can be overridden by providing a hash with keys (fields) to customize these hard-coded defaults.

This means that anything that may be specific to a single style (colors, fonts, images etc) should be encoded in the form of variables that are looked up using the styles hash - this provides a great deal of freedom to customize an existing symbol. In addition, MapStructure layers can be set up to even customize/override the default drawing routines, at which point you are free to do whatever you want basically, because the existing draw routine in .symbol file is ignored

== Using MapStructure and Overlays ==
{{FGCquote
|Support for overlays using geo-referenced raster images isn't too well-developed currently, so would need to work with a few hard-coded assumptions (e.g. being specific to a certain raster image and map layout) - but maybe TheTom can provide a few more ideas on how to proceed from here - otherwise, the Map is normally not aware of any non-Map items, i.e. as long as the overlay is added "outside" the Map, it isn't even aware of the raster image - and when it is added as a map element, it would probably be rotated. So there's still some work needed here. But generally, this should work well enough even in its current form (the screen shot is purely based on the Canvas Snippets article, i.e. it just displays a Canvas GUI dialog, adds the downloaded raster image and then adds the MapStructure APS layer - without the Map being aware of the overlay/geo-referencing that is needed currently).

Virtual airlines

2017-09-08T23:32:45Z

RenanMsV: BrazukaAirlines is closed. Starting LATAMv instead

A '''virtual airline''' (VA) is a dedicated hobby organization that uses flight simulation to model the operations of an airline. Virtual airlines generally have a presence on the internet, similar to a real airline. There are over 100 virtual airlines of significance currently active in the internet (supporting a number of flightsims), with thousands of participants involved at any one time each using different simulator platforms.

== Purpose ==
Virtual airlines were started to give a sense of purpose to activities conducted within a flight simulator. This basic premise has evolved over time, along with available technology, to provide increasing levels of immersion but always with the same core purpose. When combined with increasingly powerful personal computers, advancing flight simulation software, and communications networks, virtual airlines are often able to provide compelling, realistic, experiences similar to operations inside a real airline. Virtual airlines also provide an avenue for members to gain access to additional content, such as aircraft and scenery, for use with their simulator. The appeal varies; for younger members, virtual airlines provide a sandbox environment where they can experience the corporate environment of commercial business in the airline industry, without the risk of financial loss. These organizations also provide an outlet for those who are interested in aviation but unable to fly themselves in real life due to financial, health, or other reasons.
Most of all, its one step closer to enthusiasts feeling more involved in an airline environment and share their interests with others.
Virtual Airlines also benefit the flight simulator community by providing valuable services such as ATC, events, and general help and knowledge.

== Common elements ==
There are several elements that are common across many virtual airlines:
* A website as the focal point of the community
* Internet forum where discussion and social interaction can occur
* Customized livery that users can download together with aircraft and install in their flight simulator
* Route schedules for members to fly in their simulators
* Multiplayer events, often on a game network such as VATSIM or IVAO
* Less common elements include:
** An Online database for recording and reporting flights and membership statistics
** Dedicated game server hosting to provide private areas for members to complete flights
** Award, rank and recognition systems
** Voice over Internet Protocol servers for members to communicate freely by voice

|established = 2012

|Number of member airlines = 10

|History = Flight Unlimited originated with the formation of Flight Unlimited Virtual Airlines in January of 2011. The original idea was to create a virtual airlines without limits; fly anything, anywhere, anytime. This led to explosive growth and we were able to attract a totally unique leadership team.

As time progressed, the staff and pilots met on Teamspeak and decided that we wanted to make a course correction. While flying without limited was fun, there wasn't them same sense of accomplishment after putting in hundreds of hours as some pilots find at the airlines structured on real-world operations. That meeting was where the Flight Unlimited Community concept was born.

Today we are a strong community of Flight Simulation Enthusiasts that take it to the next level everyday. By networking together multiple unique Virtual Airlines, we are able to provide our membership with the services normally only found in significantly larger virtual airlines. This unique formula allows our pilots and staff to enjoy virutally unlimited opportunities for advancement within the community at large.

Our community of pilots are able to go to a unified job-posting board to see what positions are available at every Virtual Airline and then use their current Virtual Pilot Stats to submit an application for the position. This means that you don't have to wait for a position to open up at Cathay Pacific Virtual as a Cathay Pacific pilot, but rather take a look at Caribbean Airlines Virtual or Japan Airlines Virtual for the opportunity to advance at your own pace. This doesn't only apply to pilots but also mid-level management.

Pilots and management looking to move up through the ranking structure have the opportunity to one day become CEO's themselves, which make a Flight Unlimited Virtual Airline a truly unique place to fly and develop into the Virtual Aviation leaders of tomorrow.

Virtual airlines

2017-02-13T02:28:21Z

RenanMsV: /* Virtual airlines */

A '''virtual airline''' (VA) is a dedicated hobby organization that uses flight simulation to model the operations of an airline. Virtual airlines generally have a presence on the internet, similar to a real airline. There are over 100 virtual airlines of significance currently active in the internet (supporting a number of flightsims), with thousands of participants involved at any one time each using different simulator platforms.

== Purpose ==
Virtual airlines were started to give a sense of purpose to activities conducted within a flight simulator. This basic premise has evolved over time, along with available technology, to provide increasing levels of immersion but always with the same core purpose. When combined with increasingly powerful personal computers, advancing flight simulation software, and communications networks, virtual airlines are often able to provide compelling, realistic, experiences similar to operations inside a real airline. Virtual airlines also provide an avenue for members to gain access to additional content, such as aircraft and scenery, for use with their simulator. The appeal varies; for younger members, virtual airlines provide a sandbox environment where they can experience the corporate environment of commercial business in the airline industry, without the risk of financial loss. These organizations also provide an outlet for those who are interested in aviation but unable to fly themselves in real life due to financial, health, or other reasons.
Most of all, its one step closer to enthusiasts feeling more involved in an airline environment and share their interests with others.
Virtual Airlines also benefit the flight simulator community by providing valuable services such as ATC, events, and general help and knowledge.

== Common elements ==
There are several elements that are common across many virtual airlines:
* A website as the focal point of the community
* Internet forum where discussion and social interaction can occur
* Customized livery that users can download together with aircraft and install in their flight simulator
* Route schedules for members to fly in their simulators
* Multiplayer events, often on a game network such as VATSIM or IVAO
* Less common elements include:
** An Online database for recording and reporting flights and membership statistics
** Dedicated game server hosting to provide private areas for members to complete flights
** Award, rank and recognition systems
** Voice over Internet Protocol servers for members to communicate freely by voice

|established = 2012

|status = Active

|Number of member airlines = 10

|History = Flight Unlimited originated with the formation of Flight Unlimited Virtual Airlines in January of 2011. The original idea was to create a virtual airlines without limits; fly anything, anywhere, anytime. This led to explosive growth and we were able to attract a totally unique leadership team.

As time progressed, the staff and pilots met on Teamspeak and decided that we wanted to make a course correction. While flying without limited was fun, there wasn't them same sense of accomplishment after putting in hundreds of hours as some pilots find at the airlines structured on real-world operations. That meeting was where the Flight Unlimited Community concept was born.

Today we are a strong community of Flight Simulation Enthusiasts that take it to the next level everyday. By networking together multiple unique Virtual Airlines, we are able to provide our membership with the services normally only found in significantly larger virtual airlines. This unique formula allows our pilots and staff to enjoy virutally unlimited opportunities for advancement within the community at large.

Our community of pilots are able to go to a unified job-posting board to see what positions are available at every Virtual Airline and then use their current Virtual Pilot Stats to submit an application for the position. This means that you don't have to wait for a position to open up at Cathay Pacific Virtual as a Cathay Pacific pilot, but rather take a look at Caribbean Airlines Virtual or Japan Airlines Virtual for the opportunity to advance at your own pace. This doesn't only apply to pilots but also mid-level management.

Pilots and management looking to move up through the ranking structure have the opportunity to one day become CEO's themselves, which make a Flight Unlimited Virtual Airline a truly unique place to fly and develop into the Virtual Aviation leaders of tomorrow.

Virtual airlines

2017-02-13T02:27:25Z

RenanMsV: /* Virtual airlines */

A '''virtual airline''' (VA) is a dedicated hobby organization that uses flight simulation to model the operations of an airline. Virtual airlines generally have a presence on the internet, similar to a real airline. There are over 100 virtual airlines of significance currently active in the internet (supporting a number of flightsims), with thousands of participants involved at any one time each using different simulator platforms.

== Purpose ==
Virtual airlines were started to give a sense of purpose to activities conducted within a flight simulator. This basic premise has evolved over time, along with available technology, to provide increasing levels of immersion but always with the same core purpose. When combined with increasingly powerful personal computers, advancing flight simulation software, and communications networks, virtual airlines are often able to provide compelling, realistic, experiences similar to operations inside a real airline. Virtual airlines also provide an avenue for members to gain access to additional content, such as aircraft and scenery, for use with their simulator. The appeal varies; for younger members, virtual airlines provide a sandbox environment where they can experience the corporate environment of commercial business in the airline industry, without the risk of financial loss. These organizations also provide an outlet for those who are interested in aviation but unable to fly themselves in real life due to financial, health, or other reasons.
Most of all, its one step closer to enthusiasts feeling more involved in an airline environment and share their interests with others.
Virtual Airlines also benefit the flight simulator community by providing valuable services such as ATC, events, and general help and knowledge.

== Common elements ==
There are several elements that are common across many virtual airlines:
* A website as the focal point of the community
* Internet forum where discussion and social interaction can occur
* Customized livery that users can download together with aircraft and install in their flight simulator
* Route schedules for members to fly in their simulators
* Multiplayer events, often on a game network such as VATSIM or IVAO
* Less common elements include:
** An Online database for recording and reporting flights and membership statistics
** Dedicated game server hosting to provide private areas for members to complete flights
** Award, rank and recognition systems
** Voice over Internet Protocol servers for members to communicate freely by voice

{{Virtual airline summary

|established = 2012

|status = Active

|Number of member airlines = 10

|History = Flight Unlimited originated with the formation of Flight Unlimited Virtual Airlines in January of 2011. The original idea was to create a virtual airlines without limits; fly anything, anywhere, anytime. This led to explosive growth and we were able to attract a totally unique leadership team.

As time progressed, the staff and pilots met on Teamspeak and decided that we wanted to make a course correction. While flying without limited was fun, there wasn't them same sense of accomplishment after putting in hundreds of hours as some pilots find at the airlines structured on real-world operations. That meeting was where the Flight Unlimited Community concept was born.

Today we are a strong community of Flight Simulation Enthusiasts that take it to the next level everyday. By networking together multiple unique Virtual Airlines, we are able to provide our membership with the services normally only found in significantly larger virtual airlines. This unique formula allows our pilots and staff to enjoy virutally unlimited opportunities for advancement within the community at large.

Our community of pilots are able to go to a unified job-posting board to see what positions are available at every Virtual Airline and then use their current Virtual Pilot Stats to submit an application for the position. This means that you don't have to wait for a position to open up at Cathay Pacific Virtual as a Cathay Pacific pilot, but rather take a look at Caribbean Airlines Virtual or Japan Airlines Virtual for the opportunity to advance at your own pace. This doesn't only apply to pilots but also mid-level management.

Pilots and management looking to move up through the ranking structure have the opportunity to one day become CEO's themselves, which make a Flight Unlimited Virtual Airline a truly unique place to fly and develop into the Virtual Aviation leaders of tomorrow.

Virtual airlines

2017-02-13T02:26:29Z

RenanMsV: /* Virtual airlines */

A '''virtual airline''' (VA) is a dedicated hobby organization that uses flight simulation to model the operations of an airline. Virtual airlines generally have a presence on the internet, similar to a real airline. There are over 100 virtual airlines of significance currently active in the internet (supporting a number of flightsims), with thousands of participants involved at any one time each using different simulator platforms.

== Purpose ==
Virtual airlines were started to give a sense of purpose to activities conducted within a flight simulator. This basic premise has evolved over time, along with available technology, to provide increasing levels of immersion but always with the same core purpose. When combined with increasingly powerful personal computers, advancing flight simulation software, and communications networks, virtual airlines are often able to provide compelling, realistic, experiences similar to operations inside a real airline. Virtual airlines also provide an avenue for members to gain access to additional content, such as aircraft and scenery, for use with their simulator. The appeal varies; for younger members, virtual airlines provide a sandbox environment where they can experience the corporate environment of commercial business in the airline industry, without the risk of financial loss. These organizations also provide an outlet for those who are interested in aviation but unable to fly themselves in real life due to financial, health, or other reasons.
Most of all, its one step closer to enthusiasts feeling more involved in an airline environment and share their interests with others.
Virtual Airlines also benefit the flight simulator community by providing valuable services such as ATC, events, and general help and knowledge.

== Common elements ==
There are several elements that are common across many virtual airlines:
* A website as the focal point of the community
* Internet forum where discussion and social interaction can occur
* Customized livery that users can download together with aircraft and install in their flight simulator
* Route schedules for members to fly in their simulators
* Multiplayer events, often on a game network such as VATSIM or IVAO
* Less common elements include:
** An Online database for recording and reporting flights and membership statistics
** Dedicated game server hosting to provide private areas for members to complete flights
** Award, rank and recognition systems
** Voice over Internet Protocol servers for members to communicate freely by voice

{{Virtual airline summary

|established = 2012

|status = Active

|Number of member airlines = 10

|History = Flight Unlimited originated with the formation of Flight Unlimited Virtual Airlines in January of 2011. The original idea was to create a virtual airlines without limits; fly anything, anywhere, anytime. This led to explosive growth and we were able to attract a totally unique leadership team.

As time progressed, the staff and pilots met on Teamspeak and decided that we wanted to make a course correction. While flying without limited was fun, there wasn't them same sense of accomplishment after putting in hundreds of hours as some pilots find at the airlines structured on real-world operations. That meeting was where the Flight Unlimited Community concept was born.

Today we are a strong community of Flight Simulation Enthusiasts that take it to the next level everyday. By networking together multiple unique Virtual Airlines, we are able to provide our membership with the services normally only found in significantly larger virtual airlines. This unique formula allows our pilots and staff to enjoy virutally unlimited opportunities for advancement within the community at large.

Our community of pilots are able to go to a unified job-posting board to see what positions are available at every Virtual Airline and then use their current Virtual Pilot Stats to submit an application for the position. This means that you don't have to wait for a position to open up at Cathay Pacific Virtual as a Cathay Pacific pilot, but rather take a look at Caribbean Airlines Virtual or Japan Airlines Virtual for the opportunity to advance at your own pace. This doesn't only apply to pilots but also mid-level management.

Pilots and management looking to move up through the ranking structure have the opportunity to one day become CEO's themselves, which make a Flight Unlimited Virtual Airline a truly unique place to fly and develop into the Virtual Aviation leaders of tomorrow.

Virtual airlines

2017-02-13T02:12:21Z

RenanMsV: /* Virtual airlines */

A '''virtual airline''' (VA) is a dedicated hobby organization that uses flight simulation to model the operations of an airline. Virtual airlines generally have a presence on the internet, similar to a real airline. There are over 100 virtual airlines of significance currently active in the internet (supporting a number of flightsims), with thousands of participants involved at any one time each using different simulator platforms.

== Purpose ==
Virtual airlines were started to give a sense of purpose to activities conducted within a flight simulator. This basic premise has evolved over time, along with available technology, to provide increasing levels of immersion but always with the same core purpose. When combined with increasingly powerful personal computers, advancing flight simulation software, and communications networks, virtual airlines are often able to provide compelling, realistic, experiences similar to operations inside a real airline. Virtual airlines also provide an avenue for members to gain access to additional content, such as aircraft and scenery, for use with their simulator. The appeal varies; for younger members, virtual airlines provide a sandbox environment where they can experience the corporate environment of commercial business in the airline industry, without the risk of financial loss. These organizations also provide an outlet for those who are interested in aviation but unable to fly themselves in real life due to financial, health, or other reasons.
Most of all, its one step closer to enthusiasts feeling more involved in an airline environment and share their interests with others.
Virtual Airlines also benefit the flight simulator community by providing valuable services such as ATC, events, and general help and knowledge.

== Common elements ==
There are several elements that are common across many virtual airlines:
* A website as the focal point of the community
* Internet forum where discussion and social interaction can occur
* Customized livery that users can download together with aircraft and install in their flight simulator
* Route schedules for members to fly in their simulators
* Multiplayer events, often on a game network such as VATSIM or IVAO
* Less common elements include:
** An Online database for recording and reporting flights and membership statistics
** Dedicated game server hosting to provide private areas for members to complete flights
** Award, rank and recognition systems
** Voice over Internet Protocol servers for members to communicate freely by voice

{{Virtual airline summary
|name = Flight Unlimited
|established = 2012
|logo =
|status = Active

|Number of member airlines = 10

|History = Flight Unlimited originated with the formation of Flight Unlimited Virtual Airlines in January of 2011. The original idea was to create a virtual airlines without limits; fly anything, anywhere, anytime. This led to explosive growth and we were able to attract a totally unique leadership team.

As time progressed, the staff and pilots met on Teamspeak and decided that we wanted to make a course correction. While flying without limited was fun, there wasn't them same sense of accomplishment after putting in hundreds of hours as some pilots find at the airlines structured on real-world operations. That meeting was where the Flight Unlimited Community concept was born.

Today we are a strong community of Flight Simulation Enthusiasts that take it to the next level everyday. By networking together multiple unique Virtual Airlines, we are able to provide our membership with the services normally only found in significantly larger virtual airlines. This unique formula allows our pilots and staff to enjoy virutally unlimited opportunities for advancement within the community at large.

Our community of pilots are able to go to a unified job-posting board to see what positions are available at every Virtual Airline and then use their current Virtual Pilot Stats to submit an application for the position. This means that you don't have to wait for a position to open up at Cathay Pacific Virtual as a Cathay Pacific pilot, but rather take a look at Caribbean Airlines Virtual or Japan Airlines Virtual for the opportunity to advance at your own pace. This doesn't only apply to pilots but also mid-level management.

Pilots and management looking to move up through the ranking structure have the opportunity to one day become CEO's themselves, which make a Flight Unlimited Virtual Airline a truly unique place to fly and develop into the Virtual Aviation leaders of tomorrow.

Virtual airlines

2017-02-13T01:55:32Z

RenanMsV: /* Virtual airlines */

A '''virtual airline''' (VA) is a dedicated hobby organization that uses flight simulation to model the operations of an airline. Virtual airlines generally have a presence on the internet, similar to a real airline. There are over 100 virtual airlines of significance currently active in the internet (supporting a number of flightsims), with thousands of participants involved at any one time each using different simulator platforms.

== Purpose ==
Virtual airlines were started to give a sense of purpose to activities conducted within a flight simulator. This basic premise has evolved over time, along with available technology, to provide increasing levels of immersion but always with the same core purpose. When combined with increasingly powerful personal computers, advancing flight simulation software, and communications networks, virtual airlines are often able to provide compelling, realistic, experiences similar to operations inside a real airline. Virtual airlines also provide an avenue for members to gain access to additional content, such as aircraft and scenery, for use with their simulator. The appeal varies; for younger members, virtual airlines provide a sandbox environment where they can experience the corporate environment of commercial business in the airline industry, without the risk of financial loss. These organizations also provide an outlet for those who are interested in aviation but unable to fly themselves in real life due to financial, health, or other reasons.
Most of all, its one step closer to enthusiasts feeling more involved in an airline environment and share their interests with others.
Virtual Airlines also benefit the flight simulator community by providing valuable services such as ATC, events, and general help and knowledge.

== Common elements ==
There are several elements that are common across many virtual airlines:
* A website as the focal point of the community
* Internet forum where discussion and social interaction can occur
* Customized livery that users can download together with aircraft and install in their flight simulator
* Route schedules for members to fly in their simulators
* Multiplayer events, often on a game network such as VATSIM or IVAO
* Less common elements include:
** An Online database for recording and reporting flights and membership statistics
** Dedicated game server hosting to provide private areas for members to complete flights
** Award, rank and recognition systems
** Voice over Internet Protocol servers for members to communicate freely by voice

|established = 2012

|Number of member airlines = 10

|History = Flight Unlimited originated with the formation of Flight Unlimited Virtual Airlines in January of 2011. The original idea was to create a virtual airlines without limits; fly anything, anywhere, anytime. This led to explosive growth and we were able to attract a totally unique leadership team.

As time progressed, the staff and pilots met on Teamspeak and decided that we wanted to make a course correction. While flying without limited was fun, there wasn't them same sense of accomplishment after putting in hundreds of hours as some pilots find at the airlines structured on real-world operations. That meeting was where the Flight Unlimited Community concept was born.

Today we are a strong community of Flight Simulation Enthusiasts that take it to the next level everyday. By networking together multiple unique Virtual Airlines, we are able to provide our membership with the services normally only found in significantly larger virtual airlines. This unique formula allows our pilots and staff to enjoy virutally unlimited opportunities for advancement within the community at large.

Our community of pilots are able to go to a unified job-posting board to see what positions are available at every Virtual Airline and then use their current Virtual Pilot Stats to submit an application for the position. This means that you don't have to wait for a position to open up at Cathay Pacific Virtual as a Cathay Pacific pilot, but rather take a look at Caribbean Airlines Virtual or Japan Airlines Virtual for the opportunity to advance at your own pace. This doesn't only apply to pilots but also mid-level management.

Pilots and management looking to move up through the ranking structure have the opportunity to one day become CEO's themselves, which make a Flight Unlimited Virtual Airline a truly unique place to fly and develop into the Virtual Aviation leaders of tomorrow.

Virtual airlines

2017-02-13T01:55:00Z

RenanMsV: /* Virtual airlines */

A '''virtual airline''' (VA) is a dedicated hobby organization that uses flight simulation to model the operations of an airline. Virtual airlines generally have a presence on the internet, similar to a real airline. There are over 100 virtual airlines of significance currently active in the internet (supporting a number of flightsims), with thousands of participants involved at any one time each using different simulator platforms.

== Purpose ==
Virtual airlines were started to give a sense of purpose to activities conducted within a flight simulator. This basic premise has evolved over time, along with available technology, to provide increasing levels of immersion but always with the same core purpose. When combined with increasingly powerful personal computers, advancing flight simulation software, and communications networks, virtual airlines are often able to provide compelling, realistic, experiences similar to operations inside a real airline. Virtual airlines also provide an avenue for members to gain access to additional content, such as aircraft and scenery, for use with their simulator. The appeal varies; for younger members, virtual airlines provide a sandbox environment where they can experience the corporate environment of commercial business in the airline industry, without the risk of financial loss. These organizations also provide an outlet for those who are interested in aviation but unable to fly themselves in real life due to financial, health, or other reasons.
Most of all, its one step closer to enthusiasts feeling more involved in an airline environment and share their interests with others.
Virtual Airlines also benefit the flight simulator community by providing valuable services such as ATC, events, and general help and knowledge.

== Common elements ==
There are several elements that are common across many virtual airlines:
* A website as the focal point of the community
* Internet forum where discussion and social interaction can occur
* Customized livery that users can download together with aircraft and install in their flight simulator
* Route schedules for members to fly in their simulators
* Multiplayer events, often on a game network such as VATSIM or IVAO
* Less common elements include:
** An Online database for recording and reporting flights and membership statistics
** Dedicated game server hosting to provide private areas for members to complete flights
** Award, rank and recognition systems
** Voice over Internet Protocol servers for members to communicate freely by voice

{{Virtual airline summary
|name = Flight Unlimited
|established = 2012

|status = Active

|Number of member airlines = 10

|History = Flight Unlimited originated with the formation of Flight Unlimited Virtual Airlines in January of 2011. The original idea was to create a virtual airlines without limits; fly anything, anywhere, anytime. This led to explosive growth and we were able to attract a totally unique leadership team.

As time progressed, the staff and pilots met on Teamspeak and decided that we wanted to make a course correction. While flying without limited was fun, there wasn't them same sense of accomplishment after putting in hundreds of hours as some pilots find at the airlines structured on real-world operations. That meeting was where the Flight Unlimited Community concept was born.

Today we are a strong community of Flight Simulation Enthusiasts that take it to the next level everyday. By networking together multiple unique Virtual Airlines, we are able to provide our membership with the services normally only found in significantly larger virtual airlines. This unique formula allows our pilots and staff to enjoy virutally unlimited opportunities for advancement within the community at large.

Our community of pilots are able to go to a unified job-posting board to see what positions are available at every Virtual Airline and then use their current Virtual Pilot Stats to submit an application for the position. This means that you don't have to wait for a position to open up at Cathay Pacific Virtual as a Cathay Pacific pilot, but rather take a look at Caribbean Airlines Virtual or Japan Airlines Virtual for the opportunity to advance at your own pace. This doesn't only apply to pilots but also mid-level management.

Pilots and management looking to move up through the ranking structure have the opportunity to one day become CEO's themselves, which make a Flight Unlimited Virtual Airline a truly unique place to fly and develop into the Virtual Aviation leaders of tomorrow.
