Does anyone know if there is a flight data recorder for FSX that can record some of the following:
AoA
True Airspeed
Weight
Fuel burn
Thrust
Flight path angles (roll pitch yaw)
Indicated airspeed
Altitude (AGL, MSL, pressure alt)
Heading
Acceleration/Decceleration
Location (lat/long)
Time

Either displaying this live as your fly or recording it into a file I could use latter in something like Excel.

I am pretty certain that both FSX and FS2004 have a means of recording a flight and at the end of the flight it will display the information.
What I can not remember is exactly what all it records I seldom use it.
This feature is under the menu some place or the other. Sorry I am at work right now and can not look to see.
I am sure someone else will let you know.
But as far as a gauge I am not aware of one and not 100% sure if you could make one. FSPANELSTUDIO gives you the ability to make gauges but I do not know if this can be done.

Go to Mudpond.org for the FS2004/FSX test gauge. It doesn't record all the things you have
listed but does record a goodly number.

Look for "Flight Analysis" in the menus. You'll find most of the info there.
