Flying with Infinite Flight

The Vaeroly app (ACARS) can track flights you fly in Infinite Flight on a phone or tablet. ACARS runs on a Windows PC or a Mac, and reads the flight from Infinite Flight over your home Wi-Fi.

Set it up

  1. In Infinite Flight, open Settings, then General, and turn on Enable Infinite Flight Connect.
  2. Keep the phone or tablet on the same Wi-Fi as the computer.
  3. In ACARS, open Settings and pick Infinite Flight (same Wi-Fi) as the simulator.
  4. Book your flight on Vaeroly, load the aircraft at the gate in Infinite Flight, and press Start tracking in ACARS.

ACARS finds Infinite Flight by itself and shows Connected to Infinite Flight.

What is read

Position, height, speeds, vertical speed, heading, gear, flaps, spoilers, parking brake, engines and the aircraft's name. Your landing rate is measured as on any other simulator.

Infinite Flight doesn't share fuel or the lights through its Connect feature, so fuel used shows as not reported, and the light checks are skipped. They never cost you points.

If ACARS doesn't see the engines stop at the gate, press Finish flight once you're parked.

If it isn't found

  • Check that Infinite Flight Connect is on, and that Infinite Flight is open on a flight, not in its menus.
  • Put both devices on the same Wi-Fi. Guest networks and some mesh networks block devices from seeing each other.
  • Allow ACARS through the computer's firewall.
