At first trial there was a major issue with the Airspeed setting, when entering 120 kts in the setup menu, you had 30 kts in the flight plan... And 130 kts of TAS became about 43 kts... The windspeed correction was not responsible as it was set to zero... I realize now I used the "return" arrow to go back to the flight plan, and apparently the bug was due to this. The program does not like the "return" arrow, so avoid it. Then, after I had recorded a first flight plan, the aircraft parameters were recorded also even after closing/starting again the program. It seems now to work fine if I keep a "flight route" (a leg) recorded before quiting. Beside this initial bug I think the application is very usefull !! So many thanks for the actual and future versions - Franzgo
