Manifest for X-Plane 11 & 12

Most add-ons track your aircraft. Manifest tracks the people in it.

Every seat fills with a passenger who’s paying attention: to sustained turbulence, hard banking, how you handle the flare, and whether you’ve said a word to the cabin. Comfort only drains when an excursion holds, so a single jolt gets forgiven and a rough patch of air doesn’t wreck the whole flight. Boarding starts cold and dark with the parking brake set. The door has to open before anyone gets on, and close before you push back.

What’s tracked

• Comfort: sustained G-force, bank, and pitch excursions drain it, and momentary jolts don’t. Passengers each have their own sensitivity, and comfort recovers over smooth flying, so you can redeem a rough start.
• Seatbelt sign and cabin announcements: passengers care what the sign says. Make Welcome, Turbulence, Descent, Delay, and Arrival announcements from the HUD, a keybind, or your phone, with a chime and text, a recorded PA, or silence. Keep your cabin informed and it pays off; ignore them and they get restless. GA and helicopter flights use a passenger briefing instead.
• Landings and taxi: landings are scored on vertical speed, G-force, side-G, bank, and pitch at touchdown, with multi-bounce-aware scoring that judges the whole arrival. Taxi-out and taxi-in are scored too, and a debrief window shows your graphs and ground contacts when you park.
• FSEconomy integration: Manifest reads your “My Flight” jobs and fills in passenger count, departure, and destination automatically. It shows the job pay and a live expiry countdown, and a tight deadline makes your passengers nervous. No extra plugin required.
• Phone HUD: an optional view of your flight on any phone or tablet on your home network, with passengers, comfort, route progress, and your latest landing and taxi graphs. It’s off until you enable it. Phone buttons are a separate opt-in that let you make cabin announcements from your phone.
• Route and progress: distance between airports, a progress bar, distance to go, and an ETA once you’re airborne.
• Flight recap card: after a scored landing, Manifest builds a shareable boarding-pass style recap as a post, Story, or wide card for Instagram, Discord, and forums.
• Cabin audio: phase-based ambience that shifts through boarding, taxi, climb, cruise, descent, and landing. You can add your own WAV files for more variety.
• Career: your passenger history carries over from one flight to the next.
• Difficulty and realism: a difficulty slider, optional realistic pre-flight timing for business jets, a UTC clock, a timestamped cabin log, and a first-run setup wizard that walks you through the options.

Coverage

Five aircraft classes, from general aviation up to 185-passenger airliners: general aviation, helicopters, turboprops, business jets, and airliners. Tested against every default X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 12 aircraft and many third-party ones, with a resilience layer that keeps most aircraft working.

Runs on X-Plane 12 with FlyWithLua NG+, or X-Plane 11 with FlyWithLua NG (turbulence and G-force detection are limited on XP11, since the underlying datarefs don’t exist there). Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
