Concorde Performance System will allow you to...

1. Load the right amount of fuel for ANY route, taking into consideration:

- Custom passenger and baggage loads
- Weather along the route (you manually insert those values)
- Subsonic routes or segments at departure, arrival or both (with custom height)
- Noise abatment procedure
- Distance and FL to alternate
- Departures below or above 250 knots
- Custom taxi and "extra" fuel load

2. Get the performance values for both take off and landing taking into consideration:

- The runway legth
- Current weather conditions (via NOAA or Active Sky)
- The TOW (Take Off Weight)

3. Send the custom fuel and passenger load to the Concorde-X loader.

4. Provides a graphic chart with the expected fuel consumption at each point of the route, which allows to control if the actual fuel consumption along the route is higher or lower than expected.

5. Provides a complete fuel load sheet for manually loading each fuel tank and for managing the Center of Gravity (optional)

6. Includes the Klas Björkqvist Plan Converter, to get CIVA flight plans out of any .pln file.

7. Includes the Concorde Descent Calculator by Paul Campbell

8. Provices easy access to your PDF charts

Here is the latest version of CPS (1.4.0.0) now available.
It is an important step for users.
Indeed, the process of adding road and converting files to Adeu INS is greatly simplified.
Selected « . Pln » file to add and one click are now enough to perform this task without using PlanConverter.

Holding eserve (which coincides with the final reserve for Concorde) now can’t be less than 6500 kg which is the minimum landing fuel for the aircraft.
CPS will automatically increase this reserve if the normal calculation indicates a lower amount.

A warning message indicates an attempt to add a route that contains one or more waypoint whose name contain more than 5 characters (maximum legal ICAO) and stops the « add route » process.

The calculation of the takeoff N2 Max card has been fixed because he gave false values​​.

When the WX message is a SPECI instead of a METAR, a message informs the user that any missing parameters (wind, temperature, pressure) are given by CPS to their default (ISA) value.

Most users have reported to me the case of loading routes, showing only flight path on map, but not the LOG or distance. This problem is resolved.

Pending the re-written manual, new video tutorials will soon be available to help you to learn the main procedures of this new version.

Enjoy!
