Takeoff & Landing - performance data for 70 specific airplane models

Please NOTE! The Takeoff & Landing database contains 70 airplanes. This means it can ONLY be used for 70 specific makes and models of airplanes. Please visit the web site to get the details.

-----------------------------------
For Weight & Balance there is no limit on the make, model, the number of airplanes, the number of stations or envelopes. You can, and in fact must, customize your airplane or airplanes to match your actual W&B data. There are sample templates available but as you know the numbers for your plane are unique.

Weather availability

NOTE: The source of the METARs used in this App is NOAA's National Weather Service Aviation Weather Center. http://aviationweather.gov/adds/metars/

If the station cannot be found on this web site, it will not be in the App. This database contains over 7,000 worldwide airports.

NOTE: The Forecast App data is from NOAA's National Weather Service Meteorological Development Lab web site: http://www.weather.gov/mdl/synop/products.php

An internet connection is required to obtain the weather.
