Is it possible to calculate multiple ETOPS segments within Simbrief?
Unless I’m missing something, it looks like there is only an option to calculate a single ENTRY/EXIT point, with multiple ALTN, but no option to define more than one ETOPS segment/leg.
Hi, this currently isn’t possible in SimBrief.
From the real OFPs I’ve seen, many airlines seemingly choose to plan a single ETOPS segment, even when they technically come within 60 minutes of an airport at some point (for example, when crossing the Pacific and overflying Hawaii). Maybe it’s simpler from a planning perspective, and I guess there is rarely any other meaningful benefit to doing so.
I’ve moved this to the SimBrief Feature Requests section for now.
Best regards,
For example at work, we want multi-entries and exits; and it was a requirement for the vendors to display on sample OFP formats; and both candidates can do multi entry/exit ETOPS. The benefit is to reduce exposure to ETOPS from a planning perspective.
