I would like to add an anti-skid gauge to my aircraft so that the wheels don’t visually appear to lock up every time I put the brakes on in FSX.
Presently I have a key command linked to FSX Settings - Controls panel to correspond to the "Brakes anti-skid (on/off)" Event which works, but it has to be activated each time an aircraft is loaded.

I have the following XML code by Bernt Stolle for the gauge, but I wish to know where or how to add it to the aircraft?
Is the following code placed in a separate .xml file and if so, where is the file then placed and how is it automatically triggered when the aircraft is loaded?

<Gauge Name="AntiSkid" Version="1.0">
<!-- Turn on Anti-skid -->
<Element>
<Select>
<Value>
(L:AntiSkidInit,bool) 1 != if{
(A:ANTISKID BRAKES ACTIVE,bool) 1 != if{ 0 (>K:ANTISKID_BRAKES_TOGGLE) }
1 (>L:AntiSkidInit,bool) }
</Value>
</Select>
</Element>
</Gauge>

My guess will be that you have to compile an antiskid.xml gauge file and add it to the gauge.cab file for the aircraft you want it to be used in. Then you need to call up the gauge by making a new entry in the panel.cfg file. Its not exactly easy, but not difficult either. You will need to use some tools in the FSX SDK. I suggest you read the helpme file in that.
