Folks,

I put together a program a couple of years ago that would convert a GPS
track log into a Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 "video," so that I could
"replay" my actual flights on the simulator - allowing me to do some
analysis of my flight. It actually worked pretty well, allowing me to view
my path and altitudes on the map, and "see" the recreated flight from within
any of the simulated views while the simulator "replayed" my flight.

I had planned on packaging it and posting it somewhere for other people to
download and use, but got too busy with work. I think it's a pretty geeky
toy, but I'm still curious if anyone else might like to either use it or
continue to develop it. It was my first real project in Microsoft.NET C#,
and now that I've just installed the new freebie C# .NET 2.0 platform, I'm
sort of interested in reviving the project (it compiles and appears to run
just fine under .NET 2.0 the first time!)

It supports several different GPS formats, including NMEA Data Stream, GPS
eXchange format, Cetus TrackLog and Pathaway NMEA Log. It uses a "plug-in"
architecture to register support for new formats, so adding other formats
would be straightforward.

I'm also interested in learning what other cool things folks are doing with
aviation GPS track logs! I do know about http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/,
which is really cool for plotting your track logs against maps (many types
included!), and it's free (or, at least it was when I last tried it).
