PC-FLY ``FLITEPLN '' DOCUMENTATION
PC-Fly ``FLITEPLN '' is written to be practical & useful for the busy pilot and
only requires essential information all pilots use when planning a flight.
AIRCRAFT FLIGHT DATA -- permits saving pertinent information on 15 various
airplanes! Information readily available for flight. Hard copy printed also.
FLIGHT LOG -- User enters:
1) estimated groundspeed
2) fuel/hour
3) departure airport, checkpoints, and leg distances are ONLY
entered INITIALLY, then saved for future use
``FLITEPLN '' --- then calculates DISTANCE: total & to-go, TIME: leg,
cumulative & total in hr. & min., FUEL: per leg, cumulative, & total for
flight. It also prints hard copy as needed. PC-FLY ``FLITEPLN''saves flight
routes in files for future use AND can be re-used with different groundspeed
and fuel rates added as needed. (OR with different airplanes without change)
FAA FLIGHT PLAN -- dept., route, time, dest. fuel, name, address, etc. are
printed without re-entering. Permanent data is stored for future use.
1. DISCLAIMER: !!!!! USE THIS PROGRAM AT YOUR OWN RISK !!!!! There is no
guarantee as to the accuracy of data or calculations. User's
usual method of calculating flight plan data must be done to
check accuracy.!!!!!!
2. SYSTEM USE: Program was written on an IBM-PC, MS-DOS 2.1 interpreted Basic
and can run with 1 disc drive with 64 K RAM. It is written
to run in color when available and on a standard monitor.
3. STARTUP: Begin BASIC then type ``RUN FLITEPLN.2V1 '' (or FLITEPLN.2-1
if one has that version.)
4. CREATE SELF DIRECTIONS FOR SELF BOOTING DISK ARE AS FOLLOWS:
BOOTING 1. Format disk with /s (FORMAT B:/s)
DISK: 2. Copy BASIC to your disk (COPY BASIC.COM B:)
3. Under DOS prompt B> type :
(assuming disk in drive B:)
B>COPY CON:AUTOEXEC.BAT <CR>
BASIC FLITEPLN.2V1 <CR>
<F6> <CR>
5. REGISTERED USERS: (contributors)
They will be sent copy of program that permits adding and
changing aircraft data. Space is available for 15 airplanes
and data. Registered users will also be able to change FAA
Flight Plan data. Others will only be able to use the Flight
Log portion of the program. If one wishes to write one's own
program to permit these changes, it obviously can be done since
this is an unprotected program. I can assure you that it is
less expensive to become a registered user if ones time is
worth anything.
6. NON-REGISTERED USERS: (non-contributors)
a. AIRCRAFT FLIGHT DATA - will not work properly
b. FAA FLIGHT PLAN - will not permit changes
c. FLIGHT LOG - and remainder of the program will function
