    FreeRAAS - A Free Runway Awareness & Advisory System - Image 2

    Beschreibung

    Introduction
    FreeRAAS is a completely free Runway Awareness & Advisory System built for Microsoft Flight Simulator. Designed as an easy to use Qt-based desktop app, it provides realistic runway callouts and position awareness using real-world OpenStreetMap (OSM) data. Currently, the following callouts are supported:

    • "Caution, Short Runway"
    • ... feet available / remaining
    • "On Runway"
    • "On Taxiway"
    • "Too High / Deep Landing"
    • "Unstable"
    • "Approaching Runway ..."
    •  "Long Landing!" 
    • "Flaps, Flaps" (new)

    Keep in mind that FreeRAAS is still in an early development stage, so you might encounter occasional bugs. If you do, please leave a comment or report the issue so it can be fixed. If FreeRAAS isn't able to launch, you might have to install Visual C++ Redistributables. You can download them here: vc_redist.x64.exe

    Compatibility
    FreeRAAS is compatible with all aircrafts and all airports (assuming that they are well-supported in OSM). 

    Customizability

    You can enable or disable any callout directly in the GUI, adjust the short-runway threshold, and save or load different profiles for various aircraft or situations.

    Installation

    Simply unzip the file and launch FreeRAAS.exe. If you want real HoneyWell RAAS sounds (like the ones in the video), you can download this RAAS sounds mod and copy the audio files into the Audio directory. 

    Libraries / License

    FreeRAAS uses the following libraries:

    FreeRAAS is completely free, developed in my spare time.
    If you enjoy using it and would like to support further development, you can consider buying me a coffee or making a small donation :)

    Hey this is such a awesome addon! Even that its freeware is shocking thanks alot! I am wondering if it may be also an idea to add a simbrief functionality so that the system possibly knows which runway your gonna use or something.

    This is a very good plugin. However, there are still some issues, such as when entering a climb after takeoff, it keeps broadcasting "Taxiway" or thinks I'm approaching (by the way, this happened when I used it on MSFS2020). I look forward to future updates.

    Hello, first of all, thank you for this great add-on, I've been looking for something like this for a long time, and now we finally have it! I just have 2 small problems, the approaching and on-runway callouts are always repeated multiple times; perhaps it could be programmed so that they only occur once. My other problem is that the approaching and on-runway callouts are too late during lineup. If you could fix that, it would be fantastic! Thank you for this great add-on.

    Hey :D
    Thanks a bunch for the kind words! Yes, I can totally fix the repeating and late callouts - I’ll take care of it, and it’ll be sorted in the next update :D

    Hi, I'm getting errors that MSVCP140D.dll, VCRUNTIME140D.dll, VCRUNTIME140D_1.dll and ucrtbased.dll weren't found when I try to open the .exe. Do you have a fix for this? Thanks

    Hey Matthew,
    thanks for sharing! I accidentally uploaded the debug files, which is causing the issue. I will patch it asap!

    Improved GUI: The interface is now resizable Optimized Callouts: Fixed an issue where callouts were triggered too frequently Enhanced Scan Radius: Improved scanning precision and added a GUI option to adjust the scan radius Recommendation: For airlines, a scan radius between 65m–85m is ideal depending on airport size, for smaller aircrafts 15m is a good value
