RFoV V8.5 · Flight Desk

One place to choose and prepare the next flight.

Discovery now decides what is worth flying; Dispatch becomes the briefing stage after you make a choice. Aircraft intelligence, time, weather, Flight DNA, Atlas history, Fog of War and expeditions all feed one coherent workflow.

RFoV treats your latest recorded arrival as the natural starting point for the next discovery flight. You can still type a different origin at any time.

One Director now handles the choice. Dispatch begins only after you accept a flight, so there is no second competing recommendation board.

Weather preference only changes the Discovery score by a small amount. It is not a real-world go/no-go assessment.

Build towards the frontier

The generator starts from the selected airport and favours unvisited, distinctive fields while sizing each leg for the aircraft profile and planning speed you choose.

Current planning assumption: Touring / GA · 155 kt. Use the speed override when RFoV does not recognise a new or unusual airframe.

Discovery Expedition · VGHS to VEGY

A personal RFoV discovery chain generated from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport toward Gaya, prioritising unvisited and distinctive simulator airports while keeping each sector close to the selected flying window. Planning profile: Touring / GA at approximately 155 kt.
