Accurate and reliable flight data is indispensable for research and development to explore new findings which will be of assistance in establishing a new system of air traffic management (ATM). Although radar data called CARATS Open Data and Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) data are currently available, these data have limitations in accuracy and number of parameters; therefore, they are not so sufficient for the research in which detailed parameters such as airdata, take-off weight and cost index are required. The purpose of this study is to verify whether commercially available flight simulator software: X-Plane in which function of Flight Management System (FMS) is replicated, is usable for studies on ATM. To validate whether the flight simulator software can reproduce accurate flight profiles and aircraft parameters, mimicked flight data gained by the simulator is compared with calculated data and real data. In the flight simulation by X-Plane, weather data is input by a piece of software, FS Global Real Weather (FSGRW) which provides the simulator with weather data from National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) server every 5 minutes.
