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.

Hi folks,

I am running the demo version of iStation on the same pc that the fsx runs on. I already have a valid FSUPIC and WideFS license. Here are my 3 problems:

1. The iStation connects to FSUIPC but not to the WideFS
2. The real time position of the A/C is not shown on Google Earth although the position of the A/C is correctly displayed in the tracker window
3. I donĀ“t like the logo of iStation in Google Earth. Is it possible to use an own logo instead?

Maybe you got the answers to it?!

Thanks Bros

Matthias

Hi Matthias,

Answers to your questions:

1. If iStation is running on the FSX computer, there is no need for it to connect to WideFS, it connects directly to FSUIPC.  Connection to WideFS is only required when running iStation on a remote computer.

2. To enable the real time viewing of ACFT in Google Earth, follow these steps (see image below):

   1) Start the data logger (PERFORMANCE tab)
   2) Click on the "G.Earth Real-Time" check box.
   3) Push the "Google Earth" button.

3. You can disable the Instructor Station logo in Google Earth by unclicking the "Absolute positioning: Top Left" checkbox (as indicated in the image below).  If you want to add your own logo, you have 2 options: either superimpose an image in Google Earth, locating it on the desired position, with each data set, or we can customize the logo on your iStation copy for a fee.

Hope this answers your questions!
