A menu system can be used to set the weight and balance, view performance charts, operate the doors or configure ground equipment such as wheel chocks, engine/pitot covers and control locks. Additionally, the maintenance module enables you to set the aircraft to require servicing with the mechanical components degrading over time.

The package includes both X-Plane 12 and X-Plane 11 compatibility. It is available on x-plane.org for $34.95
