Professional Aircraft Performance Calculator for Flight Simulation
The VPT App is an advanced performance planning tool designed for flight simulation pilots who demand precision, realism, and operational depth. Developed by a real-world Boeing 747 pilot, VPT brings airline-grade accuracy to your simulator — offering an unmatched level of detail in takeoff, landing, and engine-out performance calculations.
Built on authentic aircraft data and a proprietary algorithm, VPT takes into account real-time NOTAMs, airport-specific obstacles, MEL/CDL/NNC conditions, and complex regulatory requirements to provide results you can rely on — whether you're flying standard ops or managing failures under pressure.
Key Features
- Accurate Performance Calculations:
Based on aircraft configuration, weight, airport conditions, and regulatory constraints
- Engine-Out Procedures & Obstacle Clearance:
Includes certified-grade takeoff with engine failure, EO SID logic, and missed approach climb gradients (MACG)
- Live NOTAM Monitoring
AI-powered NOTAM updates up to three times per day, detecting runway closures, cranes, and more
- Assumed Temperature Method (ATM/FLEX):
Optimize takeoff thrust with accurate derate calculations
- Visual Runway Representation:
View runway layouts, intersection options, exits, windsocks, and safety-critical data graphically
Interactive Tutorial Mode:
Learn step-by-step how performance is calculated and how to use VPT effectively
Support for MEL/CDL/NNC Scenarios:
Accurately simulate degraded performance conditions for true-to-life preflight decision-making
Global Airport Database
Daily Updates. Includes over 1 million obstacles, handcrafted runway exits, and MACG, and hundreds of thousands of engine failure procedures.
Simulation Use Only
VPT is intended exclusively for flight simulation purposes. It is not certified for real-world aviation use but is trusted by real pilots and virtual airline operators seeking realistic, scenario-driven planning.
Requirements:
Internet connection
Testimonial:
"As a real-life 737 captain, I'm thoroughly impressed with Virtual Performance Tool. It not only meets but exceeds my expectations, offering functionalities I wish for in real-world operations. This tool takes flight simulation to the next level with its in-depth performance calculations and comprehensive Weight and Balance features. It stands out as one of the top tools in the market, essential for anyone seeking to conduct detailed flight planning. It enhances all aspects of pre-flight preparation, covering everything from NOTAMs and intersection takeoffs to Engine-Out Standard Instrument Departures (EO SIDs), non-normal, and Configuration Deviation List (CDL) calculations. A genuine game-changer for pilots and enthusiasts alike. Worth every cent."
