Release of the Standard Route Tool
The Operations Team is pleased to release the Standard Route Tool - a tool that allows users to search through New Zealand's Standard Routes, and copy them into their Controller Client. This has been in development and Beta testing for some time, and we are chuffed to get this piece of kit into the wild for general use.
This Tool is available as a discrete plugin for vatSys, in addition to being available as a standalone application - allowing for the use of our Tool with EuroScope and Pilots. This is an open source project, with the code hosted on GitHub. We are always open to improvements in the code.
We'd like to make a special mention of Alex Cutforth, who has the original driving force behind the early development of this Tool, and we couldn't have done this without him.
