  • Save/Load feature
  • values inside are from Gudmundsson GA Aircraft Design Examples (converted from his imperial units where needed)
  • atmosphere model is based on freely available US Standard Atmosphere 1976
  • can take in [m] or [ft] for altitudes, and [m/s] or [kn] for airspeeds
  • Cost analysis according to heavily modified DAPCA-IV model
