Are you a
developer?
theREDCAP's dispatch engine doesn't have to live in a separate window. We're building an API that lets aircraft developers integrate our LIR, NOTOC, and load sheet generation directly into their Electronic Flight Bag.
What the API provides
Three core dispatch documents, generated by theREDCAP's engine and returned in structured format.
Loading Instruction Report (LIR)
Programmatically generate a fully calculated LIR for your aircraft type. Correct compartment sequencing, weight distribution, and tie-down instructions — all driven by theREDCAP's engine.
Notice to Captain (NOTOC)
Retrieve a formatted NOTOC reflecting dangerous goods, special loads, live animals, and other captain-critical cargo information for the dispatched flight.
Load Sheet / EDP / ACARS
Get the final weight & balance document in structured format, ready to display in your EFB or transmit directly to the cockpit via ACARS or EDP.
End-user requirements
The API is user-scoped, not studio-scoped. Each request is validated against the end-user's account.
The end-user must have a valid theREDCAP account
The end-user must own the product for the target aircraft type
API calls are authenticated via a user-specific token
Your studio receives an API key scoped to your aircraft type
How it works
From partnership request to in-EFB dispatch documents.
Partnership approval
Reach out below. We'll review your project and issue an API key scoped to your aircraft type.
User authentication
Each API call is tied to an end-user's theREDCAP account. The user must own the product for the aircraft type your EFB targets.
Call the API
Submit flight details — aircraft registration, payload manifest, fuel state. Our engine handles all dispatch calculations.
Receive structured documents
We return LIR, NOTOC, and load sheet data in a structured format your EFB can render, print, or transmit directly.
Who we're building for
We're targeting the leading MSFS2024 aircraft studios — both established names and the next generation.
Don't see your studio? Reach out — we're open to all MSFS2024 aircraft developers.
Get in touch
Tell us about your project — the aircraft type, what you'd like to integrate, and your timeline. We'll review every request and follow up directly.
