darkplay 8 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Hey guys, quick question about PFPX, since I'm thinking of buying it. Is there an option to auto-plan a route, and PFPX optimizes it according to the current winds aloft data? For example JFK-LAX without winds would be a straight forward great circle route, but say there are head winds on the direct route so can PFPX automatically select a better route with better winds?

srcooke 422 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Hello Harish, The latest version of PFPX has expanded the optimization criteria with options for minimum cost, minimum fuel, minimum time or minimum distance. Planning takes winds aloft into account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
