The cockpit isn't
where it begins.
Real airline operations happen long before the seatbelt sign comes on — and long after it goes off. These tools bring those procedures into your sim.
Your departure timeline. In your sim.
A free in-sim panel that keeps you connected to real-world A-CDM departure procedures on VATSIM — without ever leaving Microsoft Flight Simulator.
What the gate board actually shows.
A free add-on that feeds live departure management data to the gate VDGS display in your sim — so what you see outside the cockpit window matches what a real crew would see.
Why free?
theREDCAP was built on a simple idea: real procedures, without compromise. These utilities extend that philosophy into parts of the operation that every VATSIM pilot touches — not just cargo ops. Keeping them free means every pilot on the network benefits, regardless of what they fly. A rising tide.
