The Trailer

The Concept

PACX seeks to bring the feeling of responsibility and the significance of traveling with passengers and crew to your simulator.
Highlights:

Varied and dynamic flight-specific announcements
Realistic interaction with passengers and crew
Vocal interaction support
Optional in-sim overlay
Per-passenger feedback and opinion system
Career and awards system
Universal support for all major simulation platforms and all aircraft

Announcements

Over 700 different sounds make every flight sound different. The flight attendant will maked varied and realistic announcements, including your actual flight number, destination, and flight-specific information.

Passenger Simulation

Passengers will react to, and judge, events throughout your flight. A business traveler may be more affected by delays than a passenger going on vacation. Customizable career options can further affect the passenger feedback.

Keeping Everyone Informed

PACX offers the first real interaction with your passengers and crew.

Direct Interaction

Using the announcement menu, you can inform passengers of delays, diversions, aircraft problems, and more. You can also answer crew questions or request an update on their status.

Vocal Interaction

Vocal recognition technology allows you to make realistic public addresses. Use this system to interact with your passengers and crew in a realistic way.

The Experience

PACX offers a variety of systems to provide a realistic in-flight and post-flight experience.

Various incidents ranging from minor reseating delays to severe medical issues can happen. It is up to you to handle them properly. This may mean you simply expedite the flight, or you may have to make an immediate diversion. The choice is yours.
In-sim HUD allows real-time monitoring and interaction without leaving your simulator.
Extra announcements for customs declarations on international fights and Wi-Fi usage information for Wi-Fi equipped aircraft increase the immersion.
Automatic and realistic handling of in-flight service by the flight attendant make the flight feel alive.
Career mode allows you to rank up and vary your passengers according to airline parameters.
Awards can be earned for activity, on-time performance, and more.

In addition to all of the existing features, PACX offers a few additional features to select third party aircraft. On these aircraft, interaction can be initiated by pressing the appropriate in-cockpit controls on select third party aircraft. As well, their in-cockpit seatbelt sign will control the PACX seatbelt sign (default aircraft already do this).
