Instructor Station - Luis Gordo

What is Instructor Station ?


In flight simulation, an Instructor Operator Station (IOS) is designed to assist the instructor in controlling the simulation training environment and monitoring all aspects of pilot/crew performance in the simulator. The instructor can control, via this software, all functions such as aircraft position and systems, meteorological, environmental, and situational parameters.


The Instructor Station is meant to assist Aviation Professionals, Flight Simulation Enthusiasts and Home Cockpit Builders using Microsoft® Flight Simulator (FS) 2004™, FSX™ and ESP™, Lockheed Martin Prepar3D® and X-Plane®.


The Instructor Station allows setting the aircraft on an approach to a runway of choice under any weather conditions, start-up and shutdown network computers (fully customizable), program or set aircraft system failures at any moment, calculate the amount of fuel required for a flight and load it to the aircraft, record flight performance (approaches, manoeuvres, landings, take-offs, etc.) and plot it graphically, and many other things!


Compatible with all types of aircraft! It is also a great tool for anybody who wants to control the flight simulator externally.

Many features are also available for Project Magenta users (pmSystems, Glass Cockpit, CDU/MCDU, MCP/FCU), AST & FMGS JeeHell users.


Developed by a pilot, engineer & flight simulation enthusiast.

iPad resolution issue

Hi there,

I'm loving Instructor Station and have started to display it via my iPad and air display.
However, there's an annoying issue in that the resolution is so large it makes the iStation tiny and buttons almost unusable.
I've disabled 'use retina resolutions' in Air Display to no effect, and I can't find any other way of altering the resolution at either end of the setup.

Does anyone have any idea of how to get around this issue?

Cheers,
Matt

Hi Matt,

I just connected AirDisplay both to my iPad and iPad mini, and I did have to disable to 'use Retina' option to get a good resolution, but it worked well.

What kind of resolution do you have on your desktop?  I also noticed there is a more updated version of AirDisplay (version 2).  I have not tried it, but it might improve things on your end?

Are you able to display other windows/programs properly? If not, you may need to get in contact with AirDisplay for support.

Good luck!

Best regards,
Luis Gordo

Thanks Luis,

I guess it must be something going on at my end then. Perhaps a Windows 8 issue?

I'm running AirDisplay2 but the only resolution it will offer me (with and without the 'use retina resolutions' checkbox disabled) is 2048 x 1536, which is way too high.

I'll contact Air Display and see if they have any ideas. Will report back!

Cheers,
Matt

Hi,

Just thought I'd let you know I resolved this issue. It was a problem with Air Display running in a user account rather than as an administrator which was restricting the resolution settings available. Instructor Station looks wonderful taking up the whole screen now! Che3ers for an awesome program.

Slightly off topic (and certainly not a fault of iStation) but wondering if anybody has had similar issues when setting up Air Display for iStation. I now can't actually start FSX because it doesn't recognise my graphics card as sufficient (if I don't launch Air Display it works fine). The Air Display window forces itself to be the number 1 monitor and I'm wondering if this is causing FSX issues (only 'seeing' the air display adapter?). Anyway, I'm working this through with Air Display support but just wondered if anybody here had had similar issues when setting things up?

Cheers,
Matt
