Description

AircraftPower is an Aircraft Engine Performance App. It uses a standard reciprocating engine performance model to calculate and display the sea level and altitude performance of 74 normally-aspirated Continental® engines and 107 normally-aspirated Lycoming® engines.
A graphic display shows the engine performance chart and illustrates the manual construction method for determining altitude performance that we learned in ground school (and promptly forgot). As the user changes the input values, using the sliders or the custom keypad, for manifold pressure (or % power), rpm, pressure altitude and outside air temperature, the power output and percent power (or manifold pressure required) are displayed, and dotted lines and colored dots in the graphic display follow the manual construction method. While the graphics aren't really necessary, they are instructive (and interesting) to watch.
The user may choose english or metric units for altitude, altimeter setting, temperature, manifold pressure and power output (however, the graphic always uses english units), and may select default values for the inputs and the engine. The user can also choose to input the indicated altitude instead of the pressure altitude (the default), and choose to input the % rated power instead of the manifold pressure. If using the indicated altitude, an input window for the altimeter setting appears.

Awesome

This is perfect, great job excellent UI. I’d pay for it.

Works Great

I use it on most flights out of the traffic pattern. If he included IAS, I would also get TAS without need of the second app.

About time!

Great app, it’s about time we had something like available for those of us with older EMS systems. One question: Add a custom feature for engines that develop more power as a result of porting, and/or non-standard pistons? Thank you!

Great app!

A fellow RV’er friend of mine showed me this app, which I’ve now downloaded. It’s well done and super helpful!

Awesome: must to have!!!!

I can't believe no one did that app before!! It's amazing, you thought about everything even the current altitude vs std press altitude: bravo! Just missing one thing: no indication when above max continuous power (dotted line in the manual following MAP). Thanks for the aviation community!

Thanks for the Cool APP

Very Neat APP. I did not see where the engines were being operated versus peak EGT? I assume you were using 100 degrees ROP as best power setting?

Thank you

Figuring out the Lycoming charts that you can’t read and understand in the owners manual on determining horsepower based upon manifold pressure, RPM, non-standard temperature and pressure altitude. I was pulling my hair out and I said to myself we need an app for this and you created it! Thank you so much. Very well designed.

Well Done App!

James has done a great job of making a once tedious job of calculating engine altitude performance, very easy! Simple to use and informative, good planning tool to save SA on your Lycoming predicted power.

Amazing App

Hanson24 on

Simple app that does just what it says. Allows you to painlessly compute percent power. Funny, I just ferried a plane coast to coast last week and wondered why no one had done this. ...today, here it is. One bug though. Engine choice does not remain as default. (iPad 2)
