Quick Fuel Planning

About this app

This App allows for the quick calculation of the required fuel for an aircraft taking into account the average fuel flow, the average ground speed and the average wind component along a route profile. It also accounts for the alternate fuel, the contingency fuel, the extra fuel, the holding fuel, and the final reserves according to the flight rules (VFR/IFR). The estimated elapsed times (EETs) are also determined.

This App is suitable for recreational flight simulation and ground training only. It is NOT adequate for flight planning.

What's new

This App allows for a quick fuel planning; enter the distances (destination and alternate aerodromes), the average wind component (AWC), the average TAS and the aircraft fuel flow. EETs are also calculated.
