directory. To download the country files, which include airspace
restrictions, airports, and navigational aids for many countries, you
need to register with http://www.openaip.net/ The AIP information
will appear as an overlay on any chart or outline display within
PlanePlotter. You are encouraged to contribute data to the OpenAIP
system if there is any information lacking in your area.
Airframes.org changes
This version handles the recent format changes in www.airframes.org
so that automatic updating of the database should again function correctly.
FLARM data
This version of PlanePlotter displays the FLARM data from
Glidernet. It is used with the kind permission of the owners. It
shows the position of gliders that are FLARM-equipped and within
range of a user who is suitably equipped. If you have a suitable
receiver and live near a gliding site, you are encouraged to set up a
system to contribute data to Glidernet. You can enable and disable
FLARM data in Options..Sharing..Setup. The control affects both
chart displays and the aircraft information display.
Chart conditional expressions
Aircraft filtering on the chart using the conditional expressions
feature now also applies to the data exported to Google-Earth.
Setup Wizard
The Setup Wizard now includes configuration for Malcolm's "Dump1090
for Windows" interface for dongle receivers.
TCAS alerts
If a TCAS alert identifies the threat as well as the aircraft
detecting the threat, then both aircraft are now shown in the Alert
box and highlighted on the chart display.
Mlat calibration aircraft
The navigational accuracy (NUC-P) given in position reports is now
used to restrict those aircraft that might be used as calibration
aircraft in multilateration.
