The spreadsheet has been developed using aircraft performance data freely published by Airbus, Boeing, British Aerospace and Bombardier. The following aircraft types are simulated, and more will be added later. You will need to download LIBRE OFFICE which is freely available and does not interface directly with MSFS, so can be safely used with any MSFS update.

CHANGE LOG - 15th Nov 2022 VERSION PERF08

ADDTION OF THE BOMBARDIER CRJ550, CRJ700, CRJ900 AND CRJ1000.

ALL PERFORMANCE CALCULATIONS HAVE BEEN REVISED FURTHER TO ENSURE GREATER ACCURACY WITH AIRCRAFT MANUFACTURERS DATA AND FLIGHTSIM PERFORMANCE.

REVISED FLEX TEMP SYSTEM ADOPTED TO MAKE EASIER SELECTION OF FLEX TEMPERATURES

NEW AUTOLAND SELECTION ADDED TO LANDING SELECTION, WHICH AUTOMATICLLY REDUCES THE LANDING DISTANCES TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT LANDING FROM THE GLIDESLOPE RATHER THAN THE THRESHOLD.

MANY MINOR CORRECTIONS

AIRCRAFT TYPES INCLUDED

AIRBUS A318, A319, A319 NEO, A320, A320 NEO, A321, A321 NEO, A330-200, A330-300, A330-800 NEO, A330-900 NEO, A380-800.

BRITISH AEROSPACE BAE 146-100, 146-200, 146-200 QT/QC, 146-300, 146-300 QT.

BOEING B737-200, B737-600, B737-700, B737-700BDSF, B737-800, B737-BBJ, B747-400, B747-400F, B747-8, B747-8F, B787-10

BOMBARDIER CRJ550, CRJ700, CRJ900 AND CRJ1000.

The spreadsheet has a number of sheets selected by tabs at the bottom left. These are:

HELP. Instructions on how to use the spreadsheets.
COMPLEX. The full version with all the bells and whistles.
EASY. A simpler version similar to those used by pilots in the flight deck.
LOG. A sheet that helps you to log details of your flights if needed.
RWY The tables of runway data used by the simulator which can be edited.
ACFT. Aircraft data used by the spreadsheet in order to calculate the performance for each aircraft.

This was designed purely as a private project to assist me with my flight simulation. I have not had access to the wealth of information that would be required to create a complete aircraft performance chart for each individual airfield, so use with care. The runway performance indicated only takes into account the runway lengths indicated, whereas in real life a lot of other factors, such as local terrain needs to be considered. Having said that it will assist in making informed decisions on safe take off and landing.

FUTURE PLANS

AIRBUS A310
Once aircraft are fully released for MSFS then the existing specifications and weights will be amended to more closely match the weights and performance. More aircraft types will be added once the performance data is available.

Enjoy

Much needed tool, thank you.
However my Office 365 says "we found a problem in PERF08.ods. Do you want us to try to recover as much as we can?" After recovering it works but some field are missing, not sure the logic works properly. So if you are still maintaining the product it definitely worth checking. Anyway thanks for sharing the file!

I really like the effort you put into this!

But unfortunately I cant really use it on any tool... Google docs tells me something from validation rule errors, Excel looks like to have problems with the thrust and doesn't calculate, Numbers on iPad doesn't open ODS documents and I wont install open office just for one chart 😞

Can you maybe have a look into these errors and export it as xls?

matterno

So, tho i'm departing from large airports with the A32NX, I was expecting that it would allow to change from trust oat to flex temp.

however it never allows it.

Is it possible im populating some wrong infos? or is there a bug?

I'm using office365.

Great tool. Thank you for creating this. I have the performance data for B787-8 and B787-9, at least I think I do. If you are interested, send me an PM with your contact info, what info you need and I'll be happy to help.

wxman20

Hi, first of all let me thank you for creating this awesome tool!!

Any chance you can add the Concorde, CRJ, 747 and any other i'm missing for MSFS?

And, btw, any chance of adding Xplane airplanes like MD 11, A340, A350, A300, A310, Concorde, 727, 732, 757, 777, etc....

tiopernas

Any chance you could get CRJ into it?

bam2000

This really has some great potential. I would love if you could add a calc for Flex and THS. Would make this perfect.

Hi omryg,
I used to work for BAe and I have managed to obtain some Manufacturers Operations Manuals.
There is a document available online, if you can search for it, entitled:
RJ_Tech_data_at_a_glance__April_2004
In addition I fly the 146 almost exclusively on MSFS, so check the data on every flight.
I have just amended my version of the spreadsheet with an improved set of calculations and a much more accurate set of flex data. I will be publishing the update here as soon as I have checked all the figures with real flights. It does take a bit of time to get it all working so it might be a few weeks. There will be a lot of additional aircraft added.

Cheers

Hello,
May I ask where did you get performance data for the BAE 146?

Thanks

Hi Kasha,

Well it does work so can I suggest you re-download it. Perhaps you need to enter the Libre Office TOOLS section at the top and select PROTECTION and switch it off, then try again. Sorry you had a problem,

Hi Intimidati. Airbus do publish general performance data for all their aircraft. Its never going to be as accurate as the data that the Arline's use, but its not rubbish either. Search google for AIRBUS COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT AC-330 and you will find a very detailed pdf of airport planning for the A330 which includes take off and landing data.

Matterno. Well I am currently still working on the update. I'm including the A350's new versions of the A330's and the B777's and B787's. You will have to trust me.... I suspect I have another months work to do.

Thanks Baselunarbeta.

Headwind states the performance data for the A330-900 wasn't made available by Airbus and so any FLEX calculations can not be trusted. You say you based it on freely published data. So was that data released by Airbus or not? I'm confused.

gracias por el aporte

Baselunarbeta

Hey, do you know if you will update this? I like it a lot, but some planes look a bit outdated?

I'm currently working on a newer version which will: 1) Improve the accuracy of the performance calculations. 2)Add additional factors into the calculation. 3) Add additional aircraft. I'm afraid I can't commit to a timescale. I hope to add additional aircraft as they are released for MSFS.

Why does it only show the V1 speed and not the VR, and the V2?

7 months ago

The spreadsheet doesn't calculate the actual V speeds for the aircraft. The spreadsheet does provide an estimate of the relationship of V1 to VR. V1 is the speed at which you should be able to safely abort a take off and stop on the runway. V1 is never more than VR, so for a long runway you should be able to stop from the speed at which you can rotate and take off so V1 =VR. As the runway length becomes a limiting factor and you need a longer distance to stop the aircraft then V1 becomes lower than VR. Most simulator aircraft MCDU/FMC systems do not make this calculation, which is why I included it in the spreadsheet. So if the FMC/MCDU says that VR is 130 KTS and the spreadsheet says that V1=VR-5 then V1, the speed at which you can safely stop would be 125 KTS.

Great initiative. But maybe I'm missing something. Where is the V1,V2, flex calculations of the AirBus ?

Hi. Not sure I understand the problem exactly. Provided the aircraft weight and weather conditions permit a flex take off then you click on the "T/O" or "THRUST OAT" wording in the TAKE OFF CONFIG section of the spreadsheet, which will allow you to select either "AUTOFLEX" which calculates the maximum flex temp permitted or "THRUST FLEX" which opens up a drop down list of permitted flex temperatures. Hope that answers your problem

I appreciate all your hard work here. I just have one issue - the sheet isnt giving me a V1 speed and for VR it just shows -19. This is for a330-900. Am I forgetting to add something or reading this wrong? I followed the HELP instructions step by step. Thanks again.

Hi, Thanks for the comment. The spreadsheet doesn't calculate the actual V speeds for the aircraft. In the case of the A330-900 I believe you will find that the MCDU does that calculation. The spreadsheet does provide an estimate of the relationship of V1 to VR. V1 is the speed at which you should be able to safely abort a take off and stop on the runway. V1 is never more than VR, so for a long runway you should be able to stop from the speed at which you can rotate and take off so V1 =VR. As the runway length becomes a limiting factor and you need a longer distance to stop the aircraft then V1 becomes lower than VR. Most simulator aircraft MCDU/FMC systems do not make this calculation, which is why I included it in the spreadsheet. So for the example you quoted - if VR had been 150 KTS then V1, the speed at which you can safely stop would be 131 KTS. So if you experienced an aircraft issue after V1 but before you rotated the aircraft for take off then you would normally still take off and resolve the issue once airborne. This would apply also in the case of a single engine failure, as the aircraft are certified to continue a safe, albeit reduced power take off in those circumstances.

Its on my to do list. I normally work on updating the spreadsheet at the end of the summer as there are many distractions at the moment.

Hey, can I kindly ask you, how and where do you gather all that performance data? What is your source? I tried to find all this performance data, but I never really succeeded

11 months ago

Sorry to all for the delay in replying to comments, but I have been away and then my computer hard drive crashed and its taking time to get up to speed again.

Aircraft manufacturers publish basic data on their aircraft performance on line. For example Airbus publish the following on the A320 range:

https://www.airbus.com/sites/g/files/jlcbta136/files/2021-11/Airbus-Commercial-Aircraft-AC-A320.pdf

I take my data from the various performance graphs. In reality an aircraft manufacturer trying to sell an aircraft to an operator, will perform demonstration flights at various airfields, especially at the more demanding ones, in order to ensure that the aircraft can perform safely. As part of the aircraft purchase the manufacturer will normally provide performance data for each aircraft type at every runway at every airfield.

That performance data is not normally freely available. I therefore take generic considerations, such as altitudes, weather, runway states etc and apply these to the basic published figures. When I can find out actual figures for airfields I cross check to see that the spreadsheet is accurate.

Hope that helps

With easy sheet in the landing performance it always says "Reverse Thrust not used". Is there a way to set landing performance with reverse thrust set??

As far as I am aware, the regulatory authorities do not take into account reverse thrust when calculating landing distances. So any additional braking action obtained is a bonus. Its possible they consider that there are too many variables to take into account. So I'm not saying that reverse thrust is not used. I'm saying that the effects of reverse thrust are not taken into account by the regulators when the aircraft manufacturers prepare the figures for the airlines.

lucasitzer

How do you get airport info updated?? If a runway increase its length how can i update it??

If you open the RWY tab at the bottom of the spreadsheet you will see a list, a long list, of airfield ICAO codes on the left. Look at the headings at the top. Find the airfield from the list, and on the right you will see a list of runway designators and runway lengths in feet. You can change the runway designators and runway lengths. You can also add additional runways if needed. Any changes made should automatically effect the calculations immediately.

Remember to save the spreadsheet, in order to save the changes.
