Alignment Bar - Easy Panel.cfg modification so you can "Nail" your Approaches and

Landings with Ease. This is an easy modification that anyone can make to their Flight

Simulator 2002 and 2004 Program. It allows a BLUE Bar to be placed on your screen;

all you have to do is to "Line-Up" your aircraft (on Approach) with the Runway. Keeping

the Blue Alignment Bar lines-up with the Centerline, it's a sure thing that your Landing

will be "Picture Perfect" EVERY TIME.
