Tonight’s mission was to add TFR to some aircraft which will be used as drones. I chose the A-3 and B-52 as my test platforms.
The upgrade is quite simple, add a “TFR” button/annunciator to the panel of the chosen aircraft. Once installed it is a simple matter of setting your “terrain clearance” altitude in the normal autopilot “altitude” window, then engage TFR. The aircraft will then attempt to fly at the target clearance alt, even in undulating terrain. Due to limitations in flightsim there is no look-forward capability, so the system is only reactive, but it still works pretty well.

The A-3 test flight went well, navigating around Cairns, on TFR and HDG modes, at 350 Knots.
