FAA TERPS – Calculation tools added

Maximum Descent Gradient & Minimum Deceleration Distance

Two new calculation required for FAA TERPS have been added to both the FPAssistant API and also to the Windows 10 app, work will begin soon for the Apple iOS and Google Android apps which will include these calculations as well. Here is a screen shot of the calculations:

SDK Usage (C#)

    Altitude altitude1 = new Altitude(11000, AltitudeUnits.Feet);
    Altitude altitude2 = new Altitude(9000, AltitudeUnits.Feet);
    double result = TerpsO8260_3C_Calculations.MaximumDescentGradient_DGMax(altitude1, altitude2);
