Approach Speed Calculator Pro vs Pilot’s Corner Usage & Stats

Good morning Captain, Thank you to the more than 2000 pilots now making consistently safe landings, specially with gusty winds. This tool allows you to calculate a safe Approach Speed for your next landing. Specially in windy conditions, you don't want to calculate your Approach speed from memory. This App conforms with Boeing’s Flight Crew Training Manual normal procedures for Boeing 727 through Boeing 787 models. Airbus Captain? Don't worry, the method is used on Airbus aircraft as well and it's a recommended practice for any jet aircraft. You get a graphic touch display of the aircraft heading, wind direction and headwind/crosswind components with colored alerts when exceeding limitations such as crosswind, tailwind and even when approaching your Flap Placard Limit Speed, so you can perform a partial Flap Landing. easy! Our goal is to prevent landing related incidents such as tail strikes, hard landings or hydroplaning by providing accurate calculations of optimum landing speeds for your jet aircraft. Enjoy!

Pilot’s Corner

Wind Check App is designed for pilots. It determines maximum allowed wind velocity for a Take off or Landing with all possible wind directions. It takes into account all the applicable limitations for the chosen runway condition. It has been created based on experience of many airline pilots and is designed to help the crew make decision of GO/No-GO in the time critical situation. It is suggested that all the basic parameters of a particular take off/landing are inserted beforehand to get the resulting wind maximum velocity handy and compare it with the wind given by ATC rapidly and timely for a GO/No-GO decision. All the coefficients and limitations have been taken into account and the results are displayed in a table.
