Has anyone ever used the TOPCATSIM tool? I just got it and it seems that it can be used also with virtual airlines providing real acars functions to virtual pilots ie: being able to receive your loadsheet in the cockpit with details tailored to your specific flight. Any thoughts?

Re: TOPCATSIM
I use it for takeoff/landing perf data, but not much more. Great tool, seems tailored for our VA because of the GE engines being the only available for the 747-400.

Re: TOPCATSIM
I use it. It's really works if you compare it with all data in PMDG's manuals. Hoppie ACARS also installed but can not get all data from TOPCAT to be uploadedGTI1643 wrote:Has anyone ever used the TOPCATSIM tool?

Re: TOPCATSIM
Excellent tool for weights, and fuel. Use it on all flights, very much like the real world weight and balance dispatch.
And the good news, the demo., is good for the 747.
