    All new ULTAMATE TRAFFIC addon for fs2004 and    fs2002
 
Ultimate Traffic provides Microsoft Flight Simulator users the definitive answer to their AI Traffic needs.

The project is a culmination of over a year of research and development, plus takes advantage of the latest AI technology in cooperation from our friends at Project AI.

The goal of Ultimate Traffic is to provide Flight Simulator users with the most complete and realistic real-world airline movements worldwide and offer new levels in AI Traffic design.

400,000+ Real-Time Scheduled Flights - Ultimate Traffic will provide users over 400,000+ scheduled flights based on real airline timetables. These schedules include International, National, Regional, Commuter and even Air Cargo operators. The flight schedules touch every corner of Flight Simulator 2004/2002 world.

800+ Airlines Worldwide - All that traffic buzzing around the sky wouldn't be right if you did not support the airlines that fly these scheduled routes. Ultimate Traffic contains over 700 aircraft repaints of various worldwide air carriers, both big and small. The package contains over 40 aircraft types to provide users with a wide variety of aircraft scenery that adds a unique feel that is only second to you being outside a real airport fence.

3000+ Airports with Traffic - Ultimate Traffic provides users with AI traffic for over 3,000 airports complete with parking positions to handle the large volume of air traffic schedules. Countless hours were spent developing airport facilities using AFCAD and other in-house tools. The end result is an active airport environment, whether you are shooting approaches on 28L at San Francisco International, or flying a virtual load of food supplies to the upper reaches of Alaska.

Online Updater/Enhancement Tool - Ultimate Traffic is the first flight simulation add-on to provide a 'one-click' updater to provide users easy access to download new aircraft, program updates, updated airline schedules, new airport files, and additional aircraft repaints.

Fully Featured Interface - Ultimate Traffic's interface contains a rivet busting, cornucopia of options that cannot be found anywhere else. The interface was made to handle the needs of both novice users and power users by providing a whole host of options and features.

TCAS - Ultimate Traffic allows you to add a fully working Traffic Collision Avoidance System to any aircraft you fly within Flight Simulator 2004/2002. The system will monitor air traffic as you fly to your favorite destination and warn you if the air traffic becomes too close for comfort.

Status Board - Those of you who are familiar with our best seller, Ultimate Airlines, for Flight Simulator 2000 will notice that we have brought over this feature and upgraded it. This additional tool allows you to see what aircraft are currently at an airport, and can be used as a reference tool to create your favorite scheduled flight using Flight Simulator 2002's flight planner.

Text-O-Matic (TOM) - The now "famous" utility allows users to add additional airline liveries of their own creation or those that are shared across the Internet to provide even more airlines and variety in the Ultimate Traffic environment.

Aircraft Management Tools - Ultimate Traffic includes tools to allow users to manage their AI Traffic library by adding, deleting, and assigning aircraft types with full airline and call sign assignment support.

AFCAD Overlay Assigner - This utility will allow you to add multiple overlays to existing airports and/or update existing ones. It also allows for traffic management to ensure balanced traffic spread at your airports. The utility uses a straightforward approach and provides a "couple-of-clicks" solution for all your AFCAD assignment needs.

Printable Timetables - Ultimate Traffic also provides users with printable airline timetables and the ability to print airport-specific timetables of the AI traffic that are included in the package. These printouts are designed to resemble the timetables that you can find at your local airport, for your favorite airline.

Community Packager - Another utility that is included is a new tool that will allow members of the flight simulator community to share their repaints and additional AFCADs directly with other Ultimate Traffic users. Flight One thanks those who support our products by providing additional repaints for other flight sim users and has included an easy tool for those who wish to share their work with others. The created packages are available for download to fellow users using the Online Updater tool.
