TAXI Navigation
Taxi Navigation System is a professional ground-navigation and taxi-speed assistant for Microsoft Flight Simulator, designed to reduce taxi workload, improve situational awareness, and help you move from gate to runway with confidence.

Taxi Navigation System is a professional ground-navigation and taxi-speed assistant for Microsoft Flight Simulator, designed to reduce taxi workload, improve situational awareness, and help you move from gate to runway with confidence.
Taxi Navigation System gives you fast, structured taxi route building with real-time airport data (Taxiways, Runways, Gates), one-click route insertion, runway auto-routing (beta), drag-and-drop route sequencing, and an integrated Taxi Cruise Control module with live speed monitoring and configurable protection logic.
Built for sim pilots who want a smoother, safer, and faster taxi experience in busy airports.
Instead of manually memorizing taxi instructions, you can create and manage your taxi route visually in seconds:
- Select from Taxiway / Runway / Gate lists
- Build route tags quickly with keyboard or one-click Add
- Reorder route points by drag-and-drop
- Push finalized route data directly into the native backend for in-sim use
It continuously syncs airport context and route outputs, helping you stay current while you taxi.
On top of navigation, Taxi Navigation System includes Taxi Cruise Control (TCC): a dedicated speed-management layer with real-time speed readout, adjustable limits/tolerance, selectable speed source (GPS vs IAS), and configurable throttle behavior.
The result is a complete taxi workflow: plan → route → monitor → control.
Key Features
1) Route Input & Route Builder
- Build multi-point taxi routes via keyboard (Enter / Space) or list selection
- Smart route tags with color-coded groups:
- Taxiway
- Runway
- Gate
- Drag-and-drop tag reordering for fast corrections
- One-click clear and backspace-last-tag behavior
- Autocomplete sections for Taxiway / Runway / Gate suggestions while typing
2) Dynamic Airport Data Lists
- Continuously updated lists from simulator-side data:
- Taxiway list
- Runway list
- Gate list
- Runway list includes operational values:
- Length
- Width
- Slope
- Optimized responsive list layouts for compact windows
3) Runway Auto Route (Beta)
- Select a runway and trigger Auto Route
- System fetches route segments and auto-populates route tags
- Automatically appends destination runway tag in correct runway format
4) Native Route Output Integration
- Route tags are translated and streamed to native functions:
- Taxiway route channel
- Gate route channel
- Runway route channel
- Runway data supports raw runway designator handling for backend correctness
5) Taxi Cruise Control (TCC)
- Live speed monitoring (fast update loop)
- Choose speed source:
- GPS Ground Speed
- IAS (pitot/airspeed)
- Configurable settings:
- Max Taxi Speed
- Speed Tolerance
- Auto Increasing Throttle
- Airbus/Boeing throttle logic mode
- Large visual speed gauge and compact mobile-style readout
- ON/OFF master control with audible toggle feedback
6) Hotkey Management
- Built-in global hotkey configuration UI
- Default actions include:
- Route Input Clear All
- TCC Toggle
- Capture and save custom key combinations directly from settings
7) MSFS Package Management (Built-In Installer)
- Supports MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024
- Set package folder paths from within the app
- Install / Uninstall package per simulator version
- Real-time install-state indicators and readiness status
- Automatic startup check for missing packages
Compatibility
- Microsoft Flight Simulator ecosystem support:
- MSFS 2020
- MSFS 2024
- Desktop app with native bridge integration for simulator communication
Who It’s For
- IFR/VFR sim pilots who want a cleaner taxi workflow
- Streamers and content creators needing stable, readable taxi guidance
- Training-oriented users who want repeatable, speed-disciplined ground ops
- Advanced users who want customizable hotkeys and speed logic tuning
