Tregarth:
Dear Sludge,

My thinking is that the FLOLS would not be a Hornet gauge.  Instead, at say, the carrier "Outer Marker" the gauge would pop up on the screen automatically in a corner of the screen as it did in CFS2.  It would not be a cockpit gauge, possibly it could be added to the carrier?  You wouldn't need one on land since you have the PAPI lights already.

It is easy for me to make these suggestions, (it has only taken me 2 weeks to work out how to make FSUIPC to work and I won't talk about Flight Sim Commander) but I don't have a clue as to how you work the miracles that you do.

Thank you for your excellent work,

Tregarth

It is possible to create a gauge that could mimic the FLOLS, but as Tregarth mentioned, it would be 'a working Fresnel Lens gauge which is slaved to the ILS'. That's because in FSX FLOLS systems are part of objects (carriers) or sceneries (airports/bases), unlike of CFS2 (as far as I understand). So, this gauge could work very well on any aircraft, provided 1) there's a working ILS at a target airport and 2) NAV1 is tuned to this ILS.

Well, the new hud just happens to have working ILS on a moving boat.  Possibilities , anyone?! ;D

Easy enough...  Just some XML magic ;).
