The THGF Widget is a standalone MSFS 2020 toolbar application required by all THGF gliders in MSFS 2020 (including the THGF Hawk and WW Falcon 4). Activated via the MSFS toolbar, it provides in-sim access to site selection, variometer settings, and flight data. In MSFS 2024 this functionality is replaced by the EFB app, which is integrated directly into each glider category package and no longer requires a separate install.
