MSFS Mobile Companion App is based on the Python [SimConnect](https://pypi.org/project/SimConnect/) project. The app uses [MobiFlight’s](https://www.mobiflight.com/en/index.html) WASM Event Module and the [MSFS Python SimConnect MobiFlight Extension](https://github.com/Koseng/MSFSPythonSimConnectMobiFlightExtension) by Koseng to access additional switches and buttons which aren’t accessible via standard SimConnect. I would like to thank [Just Flight](https://www.justflight.com/), [Aerosoft](https://www.aerosoft.com/en/), [IndiaFoxtEcho](http://indiafoxtecho.blogspot.com/), and [MilViz](https://milviz.com/flight/) for providing a copy of their aircraft.
