This is some text inside of a div block.

Separately calculate a flight’s landing distance during pre-flight planning and before arrival to better comply with your SOP and industry guidance on mitigating runway excursions.

While in the Landing Analysis or Emergency Return views, tap either the Surface Condition or Landing Factor fields to access the new Landing Factor Selector.

Select either Pre-Flight / Dispatch or In-Flight / LDTA under Phase of Flight to access different options for surface condition and landing factor, with the latter also supporting runway condition codes in place of actual surface conditions.

Selecting different surface conditions in either mode will also automatically filter the list of available landing factors, which are more clearly labeled with both percentage and factor multiplication equivalents.

Additional settings related to landing factor selection are also available in More > Aircraft > Field Performance > Landing.

Available with ForeFlight’s Runway Analysis add-on for supported jet and select turboprop aircraft.
