Features

Flight planner

• Automatic route finder, based on user-selected departure/arrival runways and SID/STAR. Also finds route to alternate airport.
• Find wind-optimized route.
• Possible to find a route which avoids certain country's airspace.
• Analyze existing routes, and use "AUTO" and "RAND" commands to complete a partial route.
• Automatically download and parse tracks. Supports North Atlantic Tracks (NATs), Pacific Tracks (PACOTs) and Australian Organised Track Structure (AUSOTS).
• Export flight plans formats: X-plane, FS9, FSX, FSX: Steam edition, P3D v1 to v4, PMDG, PMDG wind uplink, Aerosoft Airbus, Flight Factor 777, Flight Factor A320, Ifly 737, Ifly 747 v2, JarDesign Airbus.
• Download real time wind aloft from NOAA.
• Compute required fuel for flight, using real-world upper wind and several user-specified parameters, such as taxi time, planned holding time and final reserve.
• NavDataPro/Navigraph data format support.

Take-off/Landing calculator

• Accurate take-off distance computation based on wind, anti-ice setting and packs, etc.
• Assumed temperature takeoff is supported. For some aircrafts fixed derate (TO1, TO2) is available.
• Landing calculation with custom flaps, autobrakes setting, and runway surface conditions.

Nav Data

This program comes with the NavDataPro dataset by Aerosoft. The NavData can be updated with Aerosoft's NavDataPro service or Navigraph.
