Benni T. 0 Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 Hi! I really consider buying this nice, little Programm for using it with PMDGs 777. Nevertheless some questions need to be answered before: 1. Can I use TOPER also for the B777 Freighter type? 2. Is the Airport Database somehow user-editable? 3. Does TOPER support De-Rated Takeoffs (TO, TO1 and TO2) and the combination of De-Rate + Assumed Temp? At the Moment I use TOPCAT but somehow I fear this is a "dead" one... So TOPER seems like a suitable alternate for me... Looking forward to your answers! With regards, Benni T. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nixdevelopment 7 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Hello Benni,let me answer your questions: 1. Can I use TOPER also for the B777 Freighter type? TOPER does not include performance data for Freighter as such. However you might use the 777-300ER variant as a close approximation as there is minor difference in the engine types (-300ER uses GE90-115BL, where as -300F uses GE90-110B1L). 2. Is the Airport Database somehow user-editable? TOPER uses text-based airport/runway database which can be easily edited using standard text editors, like 'Notepad' for example. 3. Does TOPER support De-Rated Takeoffs (TO, TO1 and TO2) and the combination of De-Rate + Assumed Temp? TOPER offers de-rated takeoffs from version 3.2.0 Info: The largest 777 operator in the world (Emirates Airline) uses only this method to calculate takeoff performance. Hope I have managed to answer your questions. Should you have any other inquiries, please don't hesitate to ask. Kindest regards, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
