vPilot Remote
Simulation
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
iPad
vPilot Remote puts the VATSIM controller list, chat and radio panel on your tablet, so they sit next to your charts in Split View instead of hidden behind the simulator. Tune COM1, COM2 and the transponder from the tablet; the sim follows.
It is the companion app for the open-source Handoff plugin for vPilot by sushi.at, published with their permission. The PC keeps talking to VATSIM; the tablet mirrors it over your local network.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Departure slot on the status bar: with a flight plan filed from a CDM airport,
the footer shows your TOBT, TSAT or CTOT with a countdown and a traffic-light
dot that follows the start-up window, plus the assigned runway, SID and any
delay reason. Tapping it opens the VDGS site, where the TOBT is set.
Unread chat now matches your other devices: newer plugin versions keep the read
mark themselves, so what you have read stays read after a restart and on every
paired device.
A controller's "contact me" is now readable on their row.
