This is a Re-entry Glideslope and Terminal Area Energy Management utility designed to get you safely from the edge of the Earth's atmosphere to touchdown without needing engines.
This is a major update to the original Glideslope MFD (c) 2006, 2009 LGPL released by Chris (KWAN3217) Jeppesen.
New features:
1. Fully configurable runway, preferences and glideslope selection.
2. A new digital  descent data mode to track the descent on numbers instead of tapes.
3. Lots of new options to control the Heading Alignment Cylinder position, size, and geometries.
4. Real time total energy tracking (Potential + Kinetic Energy)
5. Green / white / red color coding for nominal / high / low tracking on all displays.
6. Miscellaneous updates to the range and tracking code.
Tested on Shuttle, XR2, XR5, DG, DGIV and G42. Most likely it'll work with any spacecraft.  
Enjoy!
