Minimum Stop Margin

SimBrief Feature Requests
1

When auto-calculating takeoff performance, simbrief will not adjust flap / thrust settings until 0 feet remaining, resulting in some pretty tight results.

It would be great to have a “minimum runway margin” option in the aircraft settings.
For instance, the user selects 500’. All runway performace would be calculated to meet or exceed a 500’ buffer, before attempting alternate thrust or flap configurations. If then a takeoff was still not possible it would revert to a reduced ASDR. EFB based calculators may not consider that, however Aerodata can be configured in this way at an airline’s request.

Hello, I let the dev team know, thanks.

Hi, for now a workaround would be to simply shorten the runway by 500 ft for example:

I’ll move this to the Feature Requests category, feel free to vote for it as well.

Cheers,

I am aware of the runway shortening, however that is only available for the takeoff perf calculator.

I personally run my takeoff performance via xml and python, which using the TLR values.

The issue is really with aircraft that seem to have slightly less accurate performance (either simbrief, or in the sim), resulting in tight margins especially when using improved climb.

I’ll give it a vote.

Thanks
