Driftdown Software
Hi all
Currently flying for a European operator who do driftdown on a case-by-case basis which limits our ability to re-route during ATC slots because of the time it takes to run the software. Software is designed by the aircraft manufacturer and requires each waypoint / route / obstacle to be manually input.
Would be interested to know what other European operators are using, I'm convinced that there is a better way than what we are using currently.
Thanks

Bluesky - usually the driftdown summary is calculated within the flight planning software and should be a fairly simple automated process provided that the correct data has been loaded into the aircraft database file.
Which flight planning software provider are you currently using?
