X-Plane Auto Startup BATCH File
« on: April 08, 2020, 04:48:22 AM »
This BATCH File will automatically start your X-Plane 11 along with opening many popular websites to help prepare for your flight.

The websites that it opens by default are listed below but is easily editable by the user:

*A google search for your departure and arrival airport x-plane scenery

*A FlightAware analysis for your route

*Skyvector zoomed out to the CONUS and direct routing between your DEP and ARR airports

*AIRNAV pages for your DEP and ARR airports

*Avaition Wx .gov

*Flight plan pre-file pages for both VATSIM and PilotEdge

(note- I am sure there are more efficient methods of doing this but I am just now dipping my toes into coding. Starting with Batch and then moving on from there)

1) If a configuration file exist, the user will not be prompted where the X-Plane 11 program is stored (computer vs steam).

2) Added a file browser window for selecting the directory rather than typing or copy/pasting it.
