Flight Control HD.The Classic iPhone Hit is Now Available on Your Mac! In Flight Control HD, you're an air traffic controller at an increasingly busy airport. Programs for query ″flight control hd mac″. RealFlight is compatible only with Microsoft Windows and cannot be used with Mac OS/OSX operating systems. But if you can run Windows on your Macintosh computer, you should also be able to run RealFlight. Apple now offers a program called 'Boot Camp' that does allow Macintosh users to dual-boot Windows with Mac OS/OSX. The Flight Control Computer (FCC) is a high integrity, low SWaP (Size, Weight and Power) airborne computer that comprises two channels operating in an active/ standby configuration. Each channel directly performs the inceptor position acquisition via analog sensors, processes the aircraft manufacturer control laws, and provides digital commands.

Spad is a replacement driver for the Saitek Pro-Flight Radio, Multi and Switch panel. 0 is free to download from our software library. SimConnect is installed along with FSX/FSX SE and P3D. PowerPanel will trigger the operating system to shutdown, save all open files, and help prevent data corruption or data loss.

Flight Control, a $1 app from Firemint, wouldn’t exist without the iPhone. The unique gameplay is perfectly suited to the device, and I am hopelessly addicted. When I have a spare minute or two, Flight Control is the game I play. Go spend the buck and start playing—you can read my review later while nodding vigorously in agreement.

In Flight Control, you assume the role of air traffic controller. As an ever-increasing number of planes approach the runways, your job is to guide them all in for safe landings—ensuring that they stay out of each other’s way. Planes travel at different speeds, and each is color-coded to match the runway it must land on. You tap on approaching planes and drag a flight path for them to follow for landing. That flight path remains visible, and the plane turns white to indicate that you’ve successfully drawn a path to its runway.

But careful! More planes keep on coming. And helicopters—oh, those painfully slow-traveling helicopters—keep on coming, too. As more aircraft begin filling up the screen, you need to remain hyper-vigilant to make sure that they don’t collide. Luckily, you’re allowed to re-re-route planes as many times as you need, which you’ll find yourself doing repeatedly to avoid airborne pile-ups just shy of the runway. As you progress, this process gets increasingly manic… and not surprisingly, it’s tons of fun, too.

After a recent update, Flight Control now sports three levels (or “airfields”)—the original simple airstrip, a beachside resort with water landings, and the most hellish of all, an aircraft carrier. The military planes that show up on that last level fly faster than other aircraft in the game, and there’s not a lot of room to maneuver everybody onto the relatively tight ship. And when the tides cause the carrier to move a bit—good luck adjusting all those landing approaches in time! The other two levels can start out a bit slow. Flight Control wisely includes a fast-forward button that speeds up the action, which you can toggle at any time as you play.

Each time you successfully land a plane, Flight Control displays a cheery victory message, catered to the airfield you’re playing (“Commendable!” or “Outstanding” on the aircraft carrier; “Aloha” or “Bienvenue” at the resort; or “Good show!” and “Splendid!” on the original level. These assorted messages, and the deliciously retro menu and Game Over screens (complete with polite, congratulatory flight attendants), add a nice dose of personality to the game.

Of course, Flight Control saves your high scores (which translate to the number of planes you’ve successfully landed) on each level, and you can see how you measure up with online scoreboards. And since the game smartly saves your progress when you’re interrupted, you can achieve your insane high scores over the course of a few days, with breaks to eat and sleep.

My sole complaint is that Flight Control prompts me about whether I’d rather hear its soundtrack or listen to my own music each time I launch the game; I’d prefer a setting I could set and forget.

The game takes seconds to learn, and mere minutes to play. That makes it even more impressive that I’ve spent hours guiding planes in Flight Control and can’t wait to go play again.

Flight Control is compatible with any iPhone or iPod touch running the iPhone 2.x software update.

Thales's FBW flight control systems offer substantial benefits to aircraft manufacturers in terms of flight safety, aircraft performance and reliability. Flight envelope protection, reduced pilot workload, minimized aircraft weight, improved handling qualities and reliability are some of Thales's solutions key advantages.

Moreover, with its unique flight control system architecture and its unrivalled development and integration tools, Thales's value proposition features several additional benefits:

• Best availability and dispatch rates in the industry
• Simplest architecture, lowest complexity (fewer LRUs & P/Ns)
• Reduced integration cost and schedule risk
• Eased certification process
• Compatibility with various actuation technologies

Thales's proprietary tools system integrators to visualize and modify control law parameters in real time, even while performing flight testing, consequently saving numerous flight test hours and engineering efforts. Supported by automatic certified code generation, these tools enable Thales to deliver software updates in a fraction of the time, ensuring system certification on-time and on-budget.

The Flight Control Computer (FCC) is a high integrity, low SWaP (Size, Weight and Power) airborne computer that comprises two channels operating in an active/ standby configuration. Each channel directly performs the inceptor position acquisition via analog sensors, processes the aircraft manufacturer control laws, and provides digital commands to control the flight control surfaces. It also consolidates and reports the statuses of every equipment of the flight control system for annunciation to the flight and maintenance crew. The FCC manages the various system modes as well as the active/standby redundancy between both channels of the same FCC.

Smart aircraft may require a secondary or single axis FBW flight control system only. The Smart Electronic Control Unit (SECU) was developed to fulfill this need. It is a 3 MCU high integrity controller designed to acquire inceptor position and directly manage the flight control surface actuator. It is perfectly suitable for rudders and multifunction or ground spoilers.

The Remote Electronic Unit (REU) receives digital commands from Thales's FCC and performs close loop actuator control. It is designed to be installed near the flight control surfaces, in unpressurized areas, to reduce aircraft wiring between the FCC and the actuators.

Aircraft maintenance personnel can push software updates to and retrieve diagnosis data from the Thales's REU using a single Thales FCC interface. This saves considerable development and in-service support time, which translates into gains for both aircraft manufacturer and aircraft operator.

Thales pioneered the development and certification of FBW technology on modern aircraft, starting with the Airbus wide-body A310 in 1983 followed by the A320 family where Thales supplies the Spoiler Elevator Computer (SEC), Elevator Aileron Computer (ELAC) and Flight Augmentation Computer (FAC). Thales also supplies full flight control systems on the bombardier CRJ 700/ 900/ 1000 and Global 5000/ 6000 aircraft families.

The latest generation of Thales's FCC equips the Gulfstream G500, G600, G650 and G650ER. Cessna selected the Thales FCC and REU for its Citation Hemisphere and the SECU for the Citation Longitude .
