IFLOLS Gauge
Habu:
Posting to inform re RCBarend's very handy IFLOLS gauge. I have great difficulty distinguishing the IFLOLS lights on the Acceleration and Javier's carriers and the IFLOLS gauge solves that problem. Glideslope default is 3.2, but can be easily altered to 4.12 or any other. Can be used with FSX aircraft, as well as with the VRS Superbug with some install modifications. Read about it here:

Thanks 'Habu' - that looks interesting: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/soh_ftp/uploads/imageuploads/998614058769027076.jpg
"- Extended operating range (up to 50 nMile), so you can find a carrier at long distance.
- Visual deviation from the center of the horizontal beam, using the DatumLights.
- Display of some basic aircraft and carrier data.
Hence it acts a a full navigational instrument for carrier approaches/arrests; even in an exterior camera view, like Spotplane.
The gauge can be added in a 2D-window of an aircraft, and can be opened in any view.
It supports (moving) AI aircraft carriers, either started by FSX' AI schedules, Lamont Clark's AiCarriers2 addon program, or carriers "flown" in multiplayer mode.
For FSX-Acceleration (or FSX-Gold) ONLY !!!!
See included README for installation and operation details. By Rob Barendregt."
Habu:
Here is how to alter the glideslope, to make it compatible with vLSO for example.
Edit the file IFLOLS.xml (in Notepad++), seach for the line:
3.2 (>L:IFLOLS_GlideslopeAngleDegrees,number).
Change 3.2 into N.NN and save the file. I have found that 4.25 makes the ball congruent with the ILS needles.

Thanks for the info Habu....
I'm not a member at SimOuthouse so am unable to download the gauge from that link. Are you able to attach the zip file on these forums.
Thanks.
