XAirports is a utility app that allows owners of the popular flight simulator "X-Plane" to easily set COM and NAV radio frequencies and autopilot parameters while flying. This avoids pausing the sim to look up, memorize, and enter frequency data, as well as to fiddle with virtual knobs. XAirports is also a database, containing over 34.000 airports available in X-Plane, plus associated ATC, ILS, and VOR objects. Last but not least, XAirports can also display, save to disk, and print PDF airport charts (SID/STAR) from a variety of publicly available sources.
