Hi Ernie,

In the next rev of FSBuild - would it be possible to include a facility to handle some of the most common charts used in GA today ??? The performance profiles in FSBuild - unless I am missing something - are all setup to use "Rate of Climb"... It becomes difficult to extrapolate the data from the more common "Time, Fuel, and Distance" charts - to build an accurate profile... I'm trying to figure out a good way to do it in a spreadsheet - however - recreating the curve becomes difficult... It is probably "good enough" to forget the curve and just plot the known points at 1000 foot increments...

I'm pretty familiar with spreasheets - as I have built things like Flight Planners - that performed all the calculations for wind correction angles and such... If anyone has any input on how to perform this conversion - I'd greatly appreciate it...

The more accurate profiles we can have - should certainly add value to your product... I'm always pushing FSBuild to anyone that will listen...

Thanks,
Scott
