Android version
There are no bridges programmed on the Android version of Air Navigation Pro.
However, there is an Android App named "X-Plane to GPS" that can be acquired through the Play Store and it will allow users bridge Air Navigation Pro with the X-Plane simulator.
You just have to:
- Search for "X-plane to GPS" app in the Play Store.
- Download it.
- Follow instructions to get GPS signal from X-Plane.
- Run Air Navigation Pro.
Here's a link to the page of "X-Plane to GPS" App:

iOS version
In order to connect Air Navigation Pro to the X-Plane Flight Simulator, a special plugin must be installed in the «plugin» folder of X-Plane.
El plugin para Mac o Windows puede descargarse desde nuestro sitio al final de esta página:
http://airnavigation.aero/support
El plugin «Air Navigation_mac.xpl» o «Air Navigation_win.xpl» deben ser copiados en la carpeta «Resources/Plugins» dentro de la carpeta de X-Plane. Si el plugin fue instalado correctamente, se debería ver «Air Navigation» en el menú «Plugins» de X-Plane, que se encuentra en la barra superior al comenzar un vuelo.
Una vez que el plugin haya sido identificado en X-Plane, clickee en «Start Air Navigation bridge», en el menú «Plugins».
En computadoras Mac utilizamos la función "Bonjour" para encontrar X-Plane en la red.
En computadoras Windows, el servicio “Bonjour” es necesario para la detección automática de la dirección de red de X-Plane por el iPhone o iPad. Si usted ya tiene instalado iTunes no es necesario hacer nada, ya que Bonjour viene con iTunes automaticamente.
To manually download the Bonjour service for Windows, follow this address:
https://support.apple.com/kb/DL999?viewlocale=en_US&locale=es_LA
Download the installer and follow the on-screen instructions.
Once you have started the Air Navigation bridge on X-Plane:
- make sure you have your iPad/iPhone and your PC connected to the same wifi network;
- make sure to switch the X-Plane Sensors ON in the «Tools» menu.
