Taxi Navigation System is a professional ground-navigation and taxi-speed assistant for Microsoft Flight Simulator, designed to reduce taxi workload, improve situational awareness, and help you move from gate to runway with confidence.
Taxi Navigation System gives you fast, structured taxi route building with real-time airport data (Taxiways, Runways, Gates), one-click route insertion, runway auto-routing (beta), drag-and-drop route sequencing, and an integrated Taxi Cruise Control module with live speed monitoring and configurable protection logic.
Built for sim pilots who want a smoother, safer, and faster taxi experience in busy airports.
Instead of manually memorizing taxi instructions, you can create and manage your taxi route visually in seconds:
Select from Taxiway / Runway / Gate lists
Build route tags quickly with keyboard or one-click Add
Reorder route points by drag-and-drop
Push finalized route data directly into the native backend for in-sim use
It continuously syncs airport context and route outputs, helping you stay current while you taxi.
On top of navigation, Taxi Navigation System includes Taxi Cruise Control (TCC): a dedicated speed-management layer with real-time speed readout, adjustable limits/tolerance, selectable speed source (GPS vs IAS), and configurable throttle behavior.
The result is a complete taxi workflow: plan → route → monitor → control.
Key Features
1) Route Input & Route Builder
Build multi-point taxi routes via keyboard (Enter / Space) or list selection
Smart route tags with color-coded groups:
Taxiway
Runway
Gate
Drag-and-drop tag reordering for fast corrections
One-click clear and backspace-last-tag behavior
Autocomplete sections for Taxiway / Runway / Gate suggestions while typing
2) Dynamic Airport Data Lists
Continuously updated lists from simulator-side data:
Taxiway list
Runway list
Gate list
Runway list includes operational values:
Length
Width
Slope
Optimized responsive list layouts for compact windows
3) Runway Auto Route (Beta)
Select a runway and trigger Auto Route
System fetches route segments and auto-populates route tags
Automatically appends destination runway tag in correct runway format
4) Native Route Output Integration
Route tags are translated and streamed to native functions:
Taxiway route channel
Gate route channel
Runway route channel
Runway data supports raw runway designator handling for backend correctness
5) Taxi Cruise Control (TCC)
Live speed monitoring (fast update loop)
Choose speed source:
GPS Ground Speed
IAS (pitot/airspeed)
Configurable settings:
Max Taxi Speed
Speed Tolerance
