About Airplane Descent Calculator LT

Airplane Descent Calculator Pro $3,99

Suppose you are at 10.000 feet and need to descend to 2.000 feet. Where do you begin your descent?

Airplane Descent Calculator Lite allows you to calculate the distance in which the plane should begin the descent to get target altitude, for a specific descent rate (vertical speed) and ground speed (horizontal speed).

Many times during an aircraft flight, true ground speed differs from precomputed ground speed, so, during the flight is necessary to calculate how far we need to begin the descent. To avoid needing to go down at 3.000 feet/minute in a Cessna 150, to descend from the current altitude to runway altitude.

This App is Free, has No Ads, and not special permissions needed.

You can also check Airplane Descent Calculator Pro which allows to:

- Calculate the distance to begin the descent for a specific descent rate
- Calculate the descent rate to get a specific altitude from your current distance
- Automatically get current altitude and ground speed from GPS

NOTE: Application NOT certified for Real Flight. If you use it, it is at your own risk !!!

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)

What is Airplane Descent Calculator LT?

Airplane Descent Calculator LT is a free app that allows you to calculate the distance at which a plane should begin its descent to reach a specific altitude, based on descent rate and ground speed.

How does Airplane Descent Calculator LT work?

Airplane Descent Calculator LT takes into account the descent rate (vertical speed) and ground speed (horizontal speed) to calculate the distance at which the plane should begin its descent.

Why is it important to calculate the descent distance?

Calculating the descent distance is important because the true ground speed during a flight may differ from the precomputed ground speed. By calculating the descent distance, pilots can ensure a smooth and controlled descent without the need for excessive descent rates.

Can Airplane Descent Calculator LT provide current altitude and ground speed?

No, Airplane Descent Calculator LT does not have the capability to provide current altitude and ground speed. However, you can check out Airplane Descent Calculator Pro, which does offer this feature.

Is Airplane Descent Calculator LT certified for real flight?

No, Airplane Descent Calculator LT is not certified for real flight. If you decide to use it, you do so at your own risk.
