hello everybody !
I began to develop and test a new feature : "ATC assistance to reach closest airport".
purpose
The purpose of the feature is to be guided to the final leg of an airport only by ATC messages (without navigation instruments).
- it can help pilots to improve their skills
- it can help beginners to reach an airport without learning radio-navigation instruments
- it can be challenging for all to try to observe atc messages ( without autopilot )
need help
- I wish to know your opinion about this feature
- I am not sure about the phraseologie and speeds, altitudes I chosen, could somebody test and help ?
- how could the nasal script be improved and reused for other aircrafts, is somebody interrested ?
screenshots
how to test ?
- dowload the last version of brsq : https://github.com/hardba11/bourrasque
- takeoff and fly where you want
- enable assistance (screenshot)
- let yourself be guided by atc messages
how to understand script ?
the script is here : https://github.com/hardba11/bourrasque/blob/master/tools/assistance_to_closest_airport/assistance.nas
sorry, comments are in french :/
- zones are defined by lat and lng
- for each zone, heading, speed etc are defined
- the script does some transformations (rotation and translation) to places the aircraft in a zone
- atc messages are created depending on zone
an image to help :
thanks !
