Yeah DBate, I did think you were replying to my post. Sorry about that !
The only aircraft in Our fleet with EFB's that perform the altitude corrections is the Embraer 175 & 190. I personally fly the A-330-300 and we don't have EFB's. Our B-777's have them but they don't perform those calculations either.
As a matter of fact, several B-777 pilots use ColdcalcPRO as it is quick and precise. In seconds they have their corrected #'s while the other pilot goes through the charts confirming them ( and how accurate is interpolating between the rows ). They especially love it when there is a runway change or the G/S goes out and the numbers have to be raised to non-precision limits.
I couldn't agree more with your last statement. ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK !
Can anyone tell me what other aircraft (EFB's) calculate these corrections ? I don't know very much about exec jets. I'd love to know though. Thanks
