Very handy

It would be nice if there were some option to toggle between the 15 and 20 additive. The new FCTM May say 15, but airlines are slow to actually change the procedure. Flying the 747 and our FCOM and current version of FCTM still shows max of ref and 20. Other than that it’s fantastic.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your feedback! We hear you— so the latest version of the app now lets you toggle between 15 and 20 kt. We’re glad you’re enjoying the app otherwise!

Very Useful!

Outstanding for precise data verification. Wish numbers were larger, but app is easy to use and very useful under challenging conditions.

Does calculate tail wind gust correctly

Changed my review. I was in error. Great app.

Developer Response ,

Hello, quoting Boeing FCTM B767 Page 1.15:
"Note: Do not apply wind additives for steady tailwinds or tailwind gusts. Set command speed at VREF +5 knots (autothrottle connected or disconnected)
