will it be available for chrome?
As in ChromeOS?
PanelNinja is currently a desktop app for Windows or Mac OS rather than a browser-based app.
If the ask is for a Chrome OS version, we are considering a Linux version which could work on many Chrome OS devices that can run Linux applications but at this time something dedicated for Chrome OS isn’t in the roadmap.
If, however, the ask is about replicating this functionality within an actual browser, we would be interested in knowing the use case where a browser solution would work but a stand-alone Mac/Windows app would not.
Happy to receive any suggestions/input.
Thank you very much!
Thanks for your kind words, we hope you all enjoy using our new software!

Just a quick update that a new version of PanelNinja is available on the Windows and Mac app stores.
Among other changes, this update adds a new feature which displays your current aircraft type on your flight instrument panel and – if you have created a flight plan – also displays your origin and destination airports. It also contains performance and stability enhancements.

I’ve played around with it a bit and one suggestion that I have and maybe I missed it, but perhaps an airspeed indicator for those faster aircraft would be nice. Right now, I think it’s using a 172 airspeed indicator. But when you fly a 737 or Airbus for example, you peg out that indicator just about at V1.
An indicator like this would be great.

You are correct, our default instruments are fairly standard GA instruments, some of which are derived from a Cessna 172. The key point is we’ve built an open framework for extending PanelNinja by allowing anyone to create instruments of their own and expand their own library or share them with the community as they wish.
If you are curious how this works, check our our support documentation here.
That being said, we’ll add this to our feature request list, and we plan to open a public trello for anyone to contribute ideas in the near future, and we will add this one!
