Quick Planning is a powerful Itinerary-Trip Planner written for Corporate Jets to allow the user to determine Flight Time, Fuel Burn and (local) Take Off or Landing times for various aircraft. 85% probability winds are stored but can be modified during planning. It has the unique advantage of allowing an individual to "talk" completely in local times. All corporate jet aircraft are stored in the database base. Based on a minimum of input (select an aircraft, date of travel, departure point, destination and desired take off or landing time) the respective local departure time or local landing time is then computed. These times account for Standard or Daylight savings time as well as Taxi and ATC delays. GMT times, Fuel Burns are ETEs are displayed. FBO's, Hotels and Limos can be stored for any of the over 6800 airports in the worldwide database. This itinerary can be emailed to anyone from within the program. The great circle route is displayed for ease of planning your route and fuel stops. Your max range, with reserves, is indicated on the great circle route.
