Chart originally published by Susan Ashlock, MSFS Team Member 27/11/05
Column ‘Example in GPS?’ indicates whether or not there is an example of how these variables are used
in the GPS. NOTE that variables that are not used in the GPS may not work at all. Further info will be
added later, for example, values for enum.
How to access GPS variables:
Get: (C:fs9gps:VARNAME, UNITS)
Set: (>C:fs9gps:VARNAME, UNITS)
