About

This app calculates fuel and weight for Boeing 787 and Airbus A350/330 aircraft, using Sabre flight plan data. It supports metric tonnes and Virgin Atlantic SOPs, allowing for updates with desired loads and actual figures from the loadsheet. It also provides fuel uplift calculations in Litres and USG, and can display aircraft fuel book data.

What's New in VIRFuel

4.8.1

September 2, 2024

Updated for iOS15 and later. Various algorithm and layout updates. FREQ input for en-route fuel calculations can now be entered to 3 decimal places. Weight-adjusted RCF DP fuel can now be viewed by toggling the FREQ button - this respects the requirement for 5% contingency on remaining FREQ. The TD button can be toggled to show MIN FUEL with respect to FRES. The Weather page now uses the updated NOAA dataserver for METARs and TAFs. The selected list of airfields can be copied to the clipboard for pasting into the FDPro app 'alternates' field. Grouping of the selected airfields is now done by earmarking each airfield as a 'Destination', 'Diversion', or 'En-route' using a swipe-to-select action. For airfields selected as 'Destination' an additional function allows the current airfields selection to be saved or retrieved hence creating a collection of frequently used airfields appropriate to that route.

Excellent app for VAA pilots

This is an excellent app that has just undergone a major update to bring fully up to date. Highly recommended for flight colleagues in VAA.

Still brilliant!

Still as useful as ever, particularly the iPad version! Any chance the iPhone one could be tweaked to fit the iPhone X, XR etc screens? It goes edge to edge but as a result some of the data entry is really tricky... Cheers

Indispensable

What it says.

Donโ€™t work

Had this app then upgrade my phone since then never work

Very useful app

Fantastic app. Though no longer working on iOS 8.02.

If you ever get a long Narita and feel like updating the app a PNR calculator would be great.
