I wanted a tool that turned individual flights into something that felt like a real journey — with progress, weather, and a reason to come back to the sim. Something that remembered where you'd been and made the next leg feel earned.

So I built one. Orbiter is a flight tour planner for Microsoft Flight Simulator and X-Plane. It connects live to the sim, reads the weather at both ends of your route, preps your VATSIM or IVAO flight plan, and tracks every leg you complete across multi-leg tours that can span a weekend or a year.

It's in closed beta now. A small group of pilots are flying with it while we build towards a public release.

If you want to be part of that — register your interest at imramlabs.com/orbiter.

We're building the tools for exploration.
