The ATP utilities Version 3.03 consist of:
 - Career Assignment Editor
 - Logbook Editor
 - Career Results Editor
 - Flightplanner with Display and Printout of Routes and detailed, for ATP
   optimized Fuel Calculation
 - Node- and Route Editor
 - Editor for primary Airports and ATC Centers
 - Automatic Route Generator
 - Enhancement of assignment flights (AIRLINE support)
 - SCENEDIT: Scenery Editor for modifying, adding and deleting NAVAIDs and Runways
   within ATP-sceneries
 - detailed, context sensitive online help system 
 - SIMPATCH: patch program to correct wrong fuel usage calculation
	     (Rev. D, Rev. E, ESTICK versions)
 - MESEDI:   Message Editor to modify every text within ATP

With this tool you will be able to generate assignments for sceneries other
than the original USA-scenery, correct problems with NAVAIDs of scenery and
enjoy additional weather- and aircraft features during flight as well as
improved rating of ATP assignment flights.
