MSFS Landing Inspector

MSFS Landing Inspector is a tool for analyzing landings in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. It reads the airplane’s telemetry data via SimConnect and displays relevant information about your landing in a web browser. The MSFS Landing Inspector is free to use.

MSFS Landing Inspector displays the following data:

  • Current vertical G force
  • Current vertical speed
  • Touchdown G force
  • Touchdown vertical speed
  • Touchdown airspeed
  • Touchdown pitch, bank and heading
  • Touchdown wind speed and direction
  • Graph showing G forces during landing
  • Graph showing vertical speed during landing
  • Graph showing altitude above ground during landing
  • Graph showing airspeed during landing
  • Graph showing pitch, bank and heading during landing
  • Graph showing wind speed and direction during landing

1. Running MSFS Landing Inspector

  • Start a flight in Microsoft Flight Simulator. You have to start a flight first otherwise the tool may not work.
  • Launch MSFS Landing Inspector by running "MSFS Landing Inspector v1_2.exe". This should launch a Command Prompt window. Don't close this window.
  • Allow private network access in the Windows Security Alert Window.
  • Open your browser and load the site localhost:5000. This should load up the MSFS Landing Inspector in your browser.

2. Running MSFS Landing Inspector on Your Mobile Device

  • Make sure your PC and your mobile device are connected to the same local network and that your home network is set to Private in your Network Profile settings.
  • Run Command Prompt. Do this by pressing Win + R.
  • In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press Enter. Look for the line IPv4 Address and write down the IP address. In my case, it's 192.168.0.120. You will most likely have a different IP address. Close the Command Prompt window.
  • Start a flight in Microsoft Flight Simulator
  • Launch MSFS Landing Inspector by running "MSFS Landing Inspector v1_2.exe". This should launch a Command Prompt window. Don't close this window.
  • On your mobile device, load the following site in the browser: :5000. In my case, this would be 192.168.0.120:5000. MSFS Landing Inspector should now load on your mobile device.

Love your tool !!

But is there a way for me to change the port? Cause other apps are using :5000 already.

Hi, this addon is a compiled python web-app, you can go to the github mentioned, download the source files, install python 3.8 (and add it to your path), install requirements and flask, and then edit the msfs_landing_inspector.py file, under the function "flask_thread_func" update the line to

app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=5001, debug=False, use_reloader=False)

Or whatever port you choose. The git has instructions for installing python, flask, and requirements - it's very easy, but it does require using the command prompt.

Let me know if you have any problems with this, I'd be happy to help

The tool is for now good to debrief the landing, but would be nice to have a popup appearing at touchdown to see the parameters (fpm, G, Heading,...)

very nifty little tool. During the landing one is usually busy... well... landing. This little tool makes a detailled debrief possible and can really help you improve.

Only improvement I could suggest for now is a "connected; listening for landing" type of note so that the user knows it's working.

Just a suggestion: a measurement of the landing and take-off run length would make it complete.

I gotta say it is a great mod!. I just wonder what those color mean like for example Landing Gforce when it is in pink means that is smooth? does it change colors depends how smooth is landing? Thanks again for great work.

The colors don't change, they are fixed. This means that the color is no indication of the smoothness of your landing. Each different data set (G forces, vertical speed, winds, etc.) has its own fixed color that matches the icons.

Hope this clarifies your question.

Thank's for this great tool. I would donate you when you will make two things.
1st: If you touch a graph with the mouse it's just changing the graph. so it's hopping and you can't really analyse. So please calm this hopping graphs.
2nd: Is ist possible to save the landing's after touchdown? Maybe to give a Name before you start the recording?

And i have an other wish. There is no Blackbox in the moment. So i think with this base it should be easy to programm a "Black Box". Means you start the Black Box" give a name and save all technical Datas from your flight. If you make a crash, all datas are saved in this moment and you could analyze your crash. This would be great! Thanks again!

Thanks for the feedback! The issue with graphs popping is known and I'm working on a fix. As a workaround, I suggest you refresh the browser after every landing - this works for me at least.

Regarding the saving/export of the landing data: I've gotten a couple of requests, so I'm planning on implementing it in the future. Unfortunately, I can't give you any ETA as I'm doing this in my free time.

And thanks for the Black Box tip. I'll give it a thought.
