This little FREEWARE program adds a virtual copilot that will talk you through all the checklists....with VOICE RECOGNITION from your responses!  The thing that makes it particularly nice for cockpit builders is it is a STAND ALONE program that will communicate with FS across a network.  It is not "integrated" into FS2xxx like most "cockpit ambience" programs / gauges.

So you can locate it on a different PC than the one running FS ........ and then easily position the audio speakers from THAT machine wherever you want them (like where the copilot would sit).  It will also put the text of the conversation onto the main sim screen if you want it to ....... or not.  Your option.

It comes with a bunch of pre-made checklists for a number of specific aircraft.  You can also creat your own with the instructions given in the readme file.

This is a really nice little utility.  Get it here:

ENJOY!!!!!!!

John,

This is a nice and useful companion in the basement where no one seems to understand what the flight simmer is doing.
Thanks, can't wait to try it.

Regards, Ermias
