Track-Orbit Editor
This editor mode lets you create an air-refueling route that is not contained in the DAFIF database.

Tactical Graphics Editor
This editor mode lets you add and edit MIL-STD 2525B symbology during the creation of tactical graphics overlays.

Contour Overlay
This overlay uses DTED Level 1 or 2 data to show contour lines. An options dialog lets you set a major and minor elevation level, the display threshold, and elevation labels.

Shadow Overlay
This overlay uses DTED Level 1 or 2 to display solar and lunar shadows on the terrain based on the local time. An options dialog lets you select system or file playback time to determine the shadow and its update frequency, and the shadow color and shading.

Mission Package
This File menu option takes you to a dialog that allows you to export favorites, file-based overlays, and miscellaneous Windows® files into a single electronic package. You can then move this package to another machine by using an electronic network, or digital media, and selectively extract the files to the second machine.

Overlay Options Support
Overlay option dialogs were added for the Scale Bar, Contour Lines, and Shadow overlays.

Toolbar Customizer
You can alter the appearance of the Main and Editor Toggle toolbars. Right-click any toolbar button and select Customize from the pop-up menu. The customization dialog allows you to add or remove buttons and set their order in the toolbars.

Drawing Editor Enhancement
With the Drawing Editor active, you can draw a rubber-band box around drawing objects and save them as a group via a pop-up menu option. You can then copy and paste the group as a single object.

RDTED Support
The Map Data Manager recognizes Re-gridded DTED (RDTED) when it is available to your system. You see the tiles on the display and can copy the data to the target path, but the data are not rendered. RDTED has postings based on 30, 100, and 800-meter samples. The RDTED tiles align with CADRG maps with scales of 1:250K, 1:500K, and 1:5M, respectively.

NOAA Sectional Support
FalconView displays NOAA Sectional charts as GeoTIFFs when created in the GeoRect application. ECHUM can also be displayed on these maps.

ADRG Support
FalconView displays Equal Arc-Second Raster Chart (ARC) Digitized Raster Graphic (ADRG) maps as GeoTIFFs when created in the GeoRect application.

Route Turn Types Enhancements

• FalconView displays the Turn Short Modification and calculates leg distances from the TP to the roll-in point or from TP to TP.
• FalconView displays a Gunship Orbit and calculates the route after entering the point.

Route Editor Enhancements

• An option in the General page of the Routes Overlay Options and Route Properties dialogs allows you set the Data Transfer Device Identification (DTD ID) with the direction of flight in a manner similar to leg times and NIBs.
• An option in the Doghouses page of the Routes Overlay Options, Route Properties, and Leg Properties dialogs allows you to set the Navigation Information Box (NIB), or doghouse, position to the outside of a turn. For a left upcoming turn, the NIB for the turn leg appears on the right side. For a right upcoming turn, the NIB for the turn leg appears on the left side. This helps reduce doghouse overlapping.
• An option in the Corridor page of the Routes Overlay Options, Route Properties, and Leg Properties dialogs allows you to see a mark (white crosshair) on the display for the highest peak within each leg's corridor.
• The route toolbars have a Center Map button that centers the display on the turn point in focus.
• You can save a route as a "route template" as if you had selected the CFPS File > Save > Special > Template menu option. The file is saved with an "*.rtt" extension.

Illumination Planning
A plug-in module allows you to view solar and lunar illumination effects on an aircraft and its calculated route. You can view the shadow cast by an aircraft based on its altitude, the sun’s position, and the terrain elevation. Also lines that represent the transition between day and night are drawn as well as icons for the sun and moon positions. The icons indicate when the route heading is into a rising or setting sun. The information dialog for each turn point has detailed illumination data.

Time-Based Overlays
The Playback dialog has a "Reverse" option to play back time-sensitive overlays in reverse.

Moving Map Enhancements

• The moving map display can be driven by position data from a Predator UAV video feed. You choose the feed option in the options dialog.
• The Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) shows the distance from the route in focus. The CDI remains functional even when other editors are active.

Blank Map Enhancement
The blank map background color can be changed through an options dialog.

Multiple Point Database Display
You can display multiple databases of flight-related geographic points (local points).

Point Export Enhancement
Threats can be selected or de-selected for inclusion in the point export file.

Threat Editor Enhancements

• You can choose between a single, large, movable icon label with a leader line (similar to a cartoon text bubble) or eight smaller labels that are fixed in place.
• An editor option allows you to choose the simultaneous display of engagement and detection rings and masks.
