Developed by Abacus in the US, CoPilot V3 has been distilled from ten years worth of development, sales in excess of 60,000 units plus the accolade of being considered a Microsoft Flight Simulator “must-have” add-on.

First developed for Flight Simulator 95, the product presented a simple way for flight sim enthusiasts to create flight plans and produce airport diagrams and instrument approach plates. Later on, the development team added one of the first flight sim GPS instruments, a clever device which follows CoPilot’s flight plan, locks onto the autopilot and provides the flyer with a new and easy way to navigate to his destination.
