PC-12 Calculator

Thanks for getting this app 60% there but the time and errors can get reduced once you guys get it to pull live data and airport information to auto populate most of the input information. Would also like to see the 45 fuselage with the 67P up front as an option

Since no one from Pilatus has answered. I tried to delete the current app then install the new one. That worked fine so do not do the "update" option. Just remove and reinstall.

At first blush, the app is presented in an attractive and functional user interface. Buttons and options are well placed, easily accessed, with computations readily presented for analysis. If this were the only criteria upon which to rate it, I might have given it 4 stars for the first-out-of-the-gate issue. However, the exhaustive and repetitive disclosures, disclaiming responsibility and reliability, aroused my curiosity about its usefulness. In analyzing the Maximum Cruise Power settings I discovered that the app calculations diverged, lower as the temperature rises for torque, fuel flow and TAS, than presented in the POH. And no calculations are provided by the app for many of the "in-limits" flight regimes that exist in the POH. Obviously, it would be very helpful to have another option to the POH performance charts or the Simcom power setting matrix. And granted, I only evaluated the one area. But given the seemingly routine ability to plug in the known look-up-table database contained in the POH, I am rather discouraged about the app's overall usefulness.

This is an excellent first attempt at this app. It does need a few improvements though: - Passenger weights only go up to 300 pounds. It is unusual to have a passenger that weighs more than this, but it does happen. - The baggage weight only goes up to 265 pounds instead of the300 pounds that is allowed. - No accommodation is made for the extendable baggage net either which we have in one of our airplanes. - We need the ability to have multiple airplanes. We currently have two airplanes with different interior configurations, and are about to add another. Update: not only have none of original complaints been fixed, the app now crashes on iOS 6 any time I try to enter a baggage weight. Come on Pilatus!!!

This is a great preflight planning tool as well as a quick reference in the cockpit. I would like to see it include data for landings in pusher-ice mode though. Overall solid app for anyone who flys the PC-12 regularly.
