Lisbon and Cascais Night Enhanced
Lisbon is the capital of Portugal and the most populous city in the country. It is also the westernmost capital of the European continent on the Atlantic coast.
It is also the seat of the municipality of Lisbon, whose administrative boundaries coincide with those of the city and whose territory is subdivided into 24 parishes. The city's administrative status was originally granted by the dictator Julius Caesar as a Roman municipality.

It is also the seat of the municipality of Lisbon, whose administrative boundaries coincide with those of the city and whose territory is subdivided into 24 parishes. The city's administrative status was originally granted by the dictator Julius Caesar as a Roman municipality.
Lisbon is considered a global city due to its importance in financial, commercial, media, artistic, educational and tourist aspects. It is one of the main economic centers of the European continent, thanks to a growing financial progress favored by the largest container port on the Atlantic coast of Europe. The Lisbon region is the richest in the country, being the twentieth richest on the continent.
Cascais is a Portuguese city in the sub-region of the Lisbon Metropolitan Area, belonging to the region with the same name and the district of Lisbon.
Due to its natural and scenic values, both the town and the municipality experienced a surge in popularity that saw it become the preferred destination for Portuguese and foreign elites from the 19th century onwards. The arrival and electrification of the railway were essential for the progress of the municipality, being the main factor for its urbanization from 1930 onwards. Since then, it has grown to assert itself as one of the main suburbs of Lisbon and one of the main tourist destinations in the country, sharing the phenomena of suburbanization and peri-urbanization that took place in the rest of the metropolitan area, evident above all in the interior of the municipality.
The lights have been added for greater realism in the simulator. Are visible at great distances and through a huge area of the city. Not only the buildings, but also the highways and intersections of highways were fully illuminated. Your flight will be totally different with this product.

Focus and Limits
Instrument Simming 21st Century describes and explains advanced aviation knowledge needed for truly realistic instrument simulations. It applies to most aircraft, airports, airspaces, and simulators. It does not focus on any particular airport, aircraft, airspace, or simulator.
This manual is for home flight-simulation computer programs. It is based on real aviation laws, regulations, and procedures so home flight-simulation enthusiasts can maximize their enjoyment. Because some aspects of home flight-simulation games are not exactly like real-world aviation, some information in this book is not exactly like real flight. That is why Instrument Simming 21st Century is not intended for and should not be used for real-world flight or lessons. No liability is accepted for any misuse of this manual. – Bill Stack, author
Use Your Time Productively
Don’t lose valuable flight-simming opportunities searching the internet for flimsy freebies. Most are worth their cost. Ftldave says it best:
“YouTube is hit or miss. Sometimes there's great, informative content, other times the videos are useless and unintelligible. How much time do you want to spend searching for the former, how much time to waste with the latter? As is often said about open software, the same is true for this: It's free if your time has no value to you. ”
Flight simmers have trusted, benefitted, and enjoyed my instructional books since 1997.
Satisfaction Guaranteed
A lot of time and effort has been invested by me and others toward making a quality product that is useful to people. Any book with physical defects will be replaced at no cost. If you can show that the content of Instrument Simming 21st Century is not as described, your money will be refunded. If you find facts that you believe are in error, please let me know so I can evaluate them. – Bill Stack, Author

Atc Scout – Find The Flight Worth Flying
ATC Scout - Find the flight worth flying on VATSIM
Every VATSIM session starts the same way: tabbing between the network map, the events calendar, and a dozen open browser windows, trying to work out where the controllers actually are, whether an event is worth flying, and whether your route will get you real ATC coverage from gate to gate.

Every VATSIM session starts the same way: tabbing between the network map, the events calendar, and a dozen open browser windows, trying to work out where the controllers actually are, whether an event is worth flying, and whether your route will get you real ATC coverage from gate to gate.
ATC Scout does that legwork for you.
Tell it where you're starting from, how much time you've got, and what kind of flight you're after. ATC Scout cross-references live VATSIM traffic, controller coverage, and current events to give you a ranked shortlist of flights that are actually worth flying right now.
What It Does
Live ATC Coverage
Checks departure, enroute, and arrival coverage for every route it suggests - not just whether an airport has a tower online.
Event-Aware
Factors in official VATSIM events, so you can fly into the action or steer clear of the chaos if you'd rather have a quieter session.
Network Activity
Looks at how busy a route or region actually is right now, rather than relying on outdated activity levels.
Matches Your Flight
Set your:
-
Starting area
-
Search radius
-
Time available
-
Flight type
-
Desired experience level
ATC Scout then finds flights that actually fit what you're looking for.
Live Weather
See current METARs for every airport it recommends, so you know what conditions you'll be flying into before you depart.
Built-In Airport & FIR Database
Get the information you need without constantly switching between ATC Scout, charts, databases, and browser tabs.
How It Works
ATC Scout is a lightweight, standalone Windows app designed to work alongside your simulator.
It's completely simulator-agnostic - it doesn't touch your simulator or aircraft. Instead, it answers one simple question:
"Where should I fly tonight?"
Choose your preferences, let ATC Scout analyse the current VATSIM network, and pick a flight from the recommendations.
Works alongside any flight simulator you use for VATSIM.
Stop Searching. Start Flying.

Fwx Heli Flight Dynamics & Rotor Effects

FWX Heli Flight Dynamics & Rotor Effects: the flight dynamics add-on for every helicopter in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, with rotor shadow and rotor blade haptics
The helicopter no longer holds itself in the hover. It comes alive under the pilot and wants to be flown.
What is this package? Three add-ons for helicopters in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, with the flight dynamics at their heart. It does not move the camera, it moves the machine: every reaction is generated in the same moment from the simulator's flight data and your control inputs. The simulator's flight model is not replaced, it stays in force. The flight dynamics work on every helicopter, the rotor shadow on seven types, and the rotor blade haptics work through an audio device in your seat.
The flight dynamics: the hover and the flight becomes work again
Over the spot you are aiming for, the machine no longer holds itself there. It wants to be held, and it shows you that every second. Pitch, roll and climb follow the actual attitude of the aircraft, and your control inputs have an immediate effect on its behavior.
Seamlessly on into translational flight
The transition from the hover into translational flight is seamless, with no jump and no switching. Every direction is treated the same way: forward, sideways, backward. The aerodynamic influences and the pilot's influences become clearly noticeable.
Everything happens in the same moment
Airspeed, attitude, control deflection: every reaction is generated continuously from the simulator's flight data and your inputs, at every moment of the flight. Nothing is pre-calculated, nothing is played back.
The simulator's flight model stays in force
We do not replace it. It keeps calculating exactly as intended, our technology reads those values and adds extra motion on top. Everything is executed by the simulator itself. The original data is left untouched.
Tuned to your machine and your taste
You decide how far it goes, and you decide it in flight. That applies to every helicopter in the simulator, including types from other developers.
- Strength infinitely variable from zero to full, at any second of the flight
- Each axis can be switched on individually
- Hover and forward flight can be adjusted separately
- Profiles you can save for each helicopter type
- Tested presets for the simulator's own types, your own values for helicopters from other developers
- The factory setting can be restored per helicopter at any time
Also in the package: the rotor shadow, the shadow add-on for seven types
This part brings the shadow of the turning rotor back to where the simulator drops it. On seven well-known types it is there at first and then disappears completely above a certain rotor speed. For exactly those seven the package brings it back, following the rotor speed: on the ground, on the fuselage and on the surroundings, tilting with the machine, main and tail rotor shown separately instead of one dark blob. Each of the seven types has been calibrated individually for it.
- Airbus H125
- Airbus H135 (EC135)
- Airbus H225
- Guimbal Cabri G2
- Robinson R66
- Sikorsky S-64 Skycrane
- Boeing CH-47 Chinook, both rotors
Also in the package: the rotor blade haptics, which make the rotor felt in your seat
The haptics make the rotor felt in your own body. They send the rotor beats as deep pulses to an audio device that works in the seat or on the seat frame and that Windows recognizes as a playback device. So you do not just hear the rotor, you feel it, and every type feels different.
In detail: instead of a uniform hum that feels like a washing machine, you feel every single blade passage. The beat follows the real rotor speed, with two to eight pulses per revolution depending on the type, from the two-bladed R66 to the six-bladed S-64 Skycrane.
All of the simulator's stock helicopters are included automatically, you do not have to set anything up for that. On helicopters from other developers the haptics detect the rotor blades on their own, and anyone who still wants to do it themselves can set them by hand there. Without such an audio device, though, there is nothing to feel. If you do not want to use the haptics, you leave them off and still have the full package.
Based on our market overview, there is currently nothing for MSFS 2024 that makes helicopter flight behavior more immersive and adjustable in this form.
Reviewed by SimFlight, Threshold, MSFS Addons and MSFS Gateway.
What it cannot do
- It does not replace any flight model and does not rewrite any flight model files.
- The flight dynamics work on helicopters only, not on airplanes.
- The rotor shadow works on the seven types listed only, all others are left untouched.
- The UH-1 and the Bell 407 do not need it, they have their rotor shadow out of the box.
- For the haptics you need an audio device in the seat or on the seat frame that Windows recognizes as a playback device. Without such an audio device there is nothing to feel.
- The pulses go to that audio device as an audio signal, not to your speakers.
- This package changes nothing about the simulator's sound.
Works with your other add-ons
- Compatible with ChasePlane and FSRealistic: those two work on camera and sound, this package works on the flight behavior underneath. Camera tools apply their values on top, undisturbed.
- No changes to the aircraft files.
- Runs alongside your own liveries and other utilities.
- Requires Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
Operated from the toolbar inside the simulator, in mid-flight
A full control panel sits in the simulator's toolbar, exactly where you open every other panel as well. One click and it is in the cockpit in front of you. In the FWX Manager each of the three add-ons has its own tab, each with a master switch and the sliders below it. Every slider takes effect immediately, without a restart. No second window, no switching to the desktop.
VR compatible
In virtual reality everything works exactly the same, because we move the machine and not the picture. And because the panel sits inside the simulator, it stays reachable with the headset on: adjust in flight without taking the headset off.
Installation and uninstallation
Installation runs through a click-through installer, and the package then starts automatically with the simulator. You can uninstall in two ways: through our own FWX application or through the Windows program list.
Updates
Free updates, new features included. If another helicopter without a rotor shadow appears in the simulator, it is added free of charge with an update.
Also available as a bundle
These three add-ons are also available together with our sound pack, and the sound pack is available on its own:
- FWX HELICOPTER ALL-IN-ONE BUNDLE MSFS24: everything from this package plus the EC135 Real Turbine Sound Mod.
- FWX EC135 REAL TURBINE SOUND MOD MSFS24: the turbine sound of the EC135, works on that type only.
