This utility enables 3Dconnexion 3D mice to control the eye point in a flight-sim workflow, allowing rapid rotation and translation without keyboard or joystick buttons. With WidevieW, the view reorients across LAN computers while preserving horizon alignment, and a 10-minute trial per flight session requires registration for continued use.

This utility saves positions by storing latitude, longitude, altitude, and heading, enabling jumps to saved points. It minimizes to the system tray and presents a right-click context menu, with version 1.0.4 marking the initial release.

The Advanced Flight Tracking System tracks aircraft movements via live maps and records hours flown. It functions within the AFTS VA and Group Management System for pilot management, flight planning, and scheduling, and adds a dynamic forum signature to display hours; by SimFly, it is freeware.
Two executables, GSAT2SBX.exe and VE2SBX.exe, rename Google Satellite tiles and Virtual Earth Satellite plus Street Map tiles. They create SBXTILES, clear it if present, and for files starting with L with an X in the 3rd or 4th position and ending in .jpg or .png, generate inside SBXTILES a file with the proper name.

Flight-simulation contexts guide a key-to-mouse converter that enables programmable devices to trigger mouse clicks for software with graphical controls. In trial mode, it handles up to 3 macros for 10 minutes per session, and the user’s guide sits in manual.pdf.

Live flight data is sent from the AFTS Client to SimFly.EU servers and becomes available online through the AFTS, while pilot and VA management and SimPax (a passengers game) are supported. The utility places very little load on the system and can be minimised to the system tray once connected.

Key2LAN Universal version 1.06, by Luciano Napolitano, converts key-presses into mouse actions or keystrokes and transmits them to computers, with demo mode handling up to three macros for ten minutes per session, and the same key can be used on multiple sockets to reach several clients.
By Jofre Palau, this AirTrack plug-in for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch reads flight plans from the simulator and displays them in AirTrack via a local network. It modifies the default gauges file at .../FSX_DIR/Gauges/MiniPanel.cfg, creating MiniPanel.bak, and provides Window04 and Window10 blocks for in-sim control.
An executable by Chris Tester denies all incoming friend requests during multiplayer sessions, helping administrators stay connected even when away from the machine. It operates by running minimized, checks for requests every 80 seconds, and requires a 3.0+ framework installed via the installer dotnetfx3setup.exe, with usage confined to active sessions beyond the lobby.
