J_T,

It isnt logical nor correct, however thats the way it is! I think that i would call it an adopted name rather than a proper term!

Extremely interesting comments, can you tell me what part of the takeoff performance calculation changes due to the runway width? Is there a real need to enter that parameter?

BLT was designed for BBJ operators so there wasnt a design working group involving airlines, however, they were soliciting comments by handing out the initial version in Tukwila prior to its release.

Cost Index.

The program itself isnt that expensive, or at least in our case it was free, however you must supply $50 million liability insurance to be allowed use it!
