It will now be watching your flight and provide the callouts as you configured them within the app. It's that simple!====================CO-PILOT CALLOUTSThe following callouts are provided: • "80 knots" • "V₁" • "V₂" • "Rotate" • "Positive Rate" • "Let's watch our speed, captain" warning when taxiing or flying too fast • "Gear up/down" confirmation • "Flaps at XXX degrees" / "Flaps Final" confirmations • Spoiler status • 4 voices, including Mark 'Skyhawk Heavy' Denton!=============PASSENGER ANNOUNCEMENTS (IN-APP PURCHASE) * Welcome aboard announcement * Arm doors for departure & cross-check * Safety briefing * Flight attendants, take seats for takeoff (when turning on strobes) * "You may move about the cabin now, etc." * Descent beginning * Welcome post-landing=============RUNWAY AWARENESS AND ADVISORY SYSTEM (IN-APP PURCHASE) * "APPROACHING RUNWAY 12R", "ON RUNWAY 12R" * "CAUTION TAXIWAY" * "FLAPS FLAPS" * "UNSTABLE UNSTABLE" * "TOO HIGH TOO HIGH" * "TOO FAST TOO FAST" * Many more..====================AUTOMATED GPWS WARNINGS, FLIGHT ALERTS, SIMPLE VNAV (IN-APP PURCHASE)Experience fully-featured GPWS warning callouts such as "TOO LOW, GEAR", "SINK RATE", or "PULL UP!" - in accordance with the specification of the real-world Honeywell MK VI GPWS system - with all 6 modes supported, including turboprop alternative settings (automatically detected whether the aircraft is a turboprop), Steep Approach Bias, Flap Override settings, and more.(NEW) Also provides a waypoint proximity alert system and a simplified "VNAV" system where you can set altitudes and speeds you want the autopilot to have per waypoint!The following callouts are provided: • Autopilot disconnect warning sound (Airbus / Boeing) • "GLIDESLOPE" both quiet and loud, depending on how low you are • "SINKRATE" • "PULL UP! PULL UP!" • "TERRAIN! TERRAIN!" • "DON'T SINK" • "TOO LOW, TERRAIN" • "TOO LOW, GEAR" • "TOO LOW, FLAPS" • "APPROACHING MINIMUMS" • "MINIMUMS" or "MINIMUMS, MINIMUMS" (configurable) • "BANK ANGLE" based on aircraft type, altitude, speed, autopilot setting, etc. • "RETARD, RETARD" when landing in an Airbus=============VOICE COMMANDS (IN-APP PURCHASE)Using a headset mic, use voice commands to control many of the airplane's systems! Once it is set up, In-Flight Assistant will be listening for your voice to say things like "gear up", "set heading 2-3-0", and much more, and your co-pilot will set the autopilot settings for you!IMPORTANT A headset and a quiet environment is recommended for best accuracy. The stronger your non-American accent, the less accurate the recognition may work.====================THANKSHuge thanks to the entire Infinite Flight community for their amazing support, as well as Laura & Flying Dev Studios for providing an awesome API that makes apps like this one possible.Additional thanks to Cam (maker of LiveFlight) for his open-source API examples.Thanks to Jan (www.helpathand.nl) for his audio engineering assistance!====================FINE PRINTIn-Flight Assistant is not affiliated with Flying Dev Studios.
