XAcars for X-plane [Solved]

phpVMS Legacy Support
1

Hi There,

Some of our pilots are starting to want to use X-plane, When I went to do some testing I found I could not select an aircraft type.

In kACARS for FSX there is a dropdown list for aircraft type to fly.

Can some tell me how to select an aircraft in Xacars ver 2.5.6 (http://www.xacars.net/)?

Or is there a better program to use?

 

Thank you

I await your reply

David.

You can use kACARS with X-Plane on a PC. X-Plane pilots will also need XPUIPC installed in XP. This works for XP10 and XP11.

Pilots on a MAC will need to use XACARS.

Hi ProAvia,

As far as I know only kACARS II supports X-Plane our VA is still only running kACARS Classic.

We have had one pilot using XP since late 2014 - using kACARS_Free.

Have one of your XP pilots try it out. As long as they have XPUIPC installed correctly, it should communicate with kACARS_Free.

Thanks for the info I have the demo of X-plan 11 so I will google XPUIPC and try it my self.

Our VA has some flights with in the demo area.
