Alex Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I am currently creating an ACARS system for FlightGear a free open source flightsim. i'm interested on how "landingrate" is calculated. Can anyone enlighten me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 10, 2011 Administrators Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 That's sent by the ACARS app, not calculated by phpVMS. As for how they calculate it, it's probably the vertical speed on touchdown? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I can grab vertical speed on touchdown from the sim so thats no prob, i'm assuming each aircraft type has the ideal vs at the point of landing. I will do some further research, thanls. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
