Remote CDU for X-Plane
Flight Deck FMS
Your aircraft’s brain, now at your fingertips.
Connected precision
Operate your Flight Management computer in real time with seamless X-Plane integration.
Zero setup, automatic aircraft detection, instant response.
From a 737 CDU to an Airbus MCDU, everything just works.
Native. Fast. Real.
Unlike browser-based FMC panels, Flight Deck FMS is a fully native app designed exclusively for iPad.
It delivers smooth interaction, crisp visuals, and instant response — built with the same custom avionics engine that powers Flight Deck ONE.
No web pages. No lag. Just a true, touch-ready flight management experience.
Multiple units, one app
Flight Deck FMS includes six core models covering more than twenty avionics variants — all built to match the behavior, layout, and quirks of their real counterparts.
Supported families:
Thales MCDU — on Airbus A3xx and MD-11
Honeywell Pegasus FMC — on Boeing 737, 747, 777, and other
Honeywell Primus 2000 — as used in the Citation X and business jets
Universal UNS-1 — found in regional and turboprop aircraft
Collins CDU-6200 — found in regional and business jets
INS systems — Delco Carousel CIVA and Litton LTN-92
Each model automatically adapts to the aircraft you load in X-Plane, with correct layout, display fonts, and button logic — modern or legacy, airline or GA.
Compatibility
Fully compatible with:
Laminar Research default aircraft (737-800, A333, MD-82 and Citation X)

Your iPad instantly becomes the right unit for the right cockpit — no configuration needed.

Display both captain and first officer units on the same screen, or focus on a single FMS for compact setups.
Where available, also the third CDU is supported.
Legacy meets modern
From Delco Carousel CIV-A and Litton LTN-72 INS to advanced Honeywell FMCs and Airbus MCDUs,
Flight Deck FMS adapts its style to the aircraft — bringing era-correct realism to every flight.
