Simple FMC Plugin for GEFS Online

Simple Flight Management Computer Plugin for GEFS Online

This is a simple flight management computer-esque display that commandeers the existing autopilot UI. This features the ability to follow reasonably complex routes with support for resolving the GPS location for most airports, most US based reporting points/VOR names, and "rough GPS" coordinations (e.g. XXXXN/YYYYYW). There are a few bugs with the route UI, but none that really affect game play.

This GEFS plugin works on the at least the current version of GEFS Online (version 1.5c)
