Missions - SimVars - Exposed (FSX)
From FSDeveloper Wiki
 | This page is a work-in-progress. Generic message - Please note some detail may possibly be missing or incorrect. |
FSX has many SimVars, unfortunately only a limited selection are exposed for use by the mission engine.
TODO - Insert table of totals versus exposed by version.
Possibly others may be available by using a 3rd party tool, (requires confirmation/data).
When utilising an SimVar in a mission,
you should ensure it is available in your target FSX version.
