Hi,
as far as I know, SD doesn't offer a calculation option for takeoff and landing except of the w&b calculation.
So what I do is to calculate takeoff and landing runs with an external tool and the flight manual.

What I would like to have is an option to capture the calculated figures in SD to have all necessary data in one place. 
I think the flight details section of a route could be a good place to store the data as it already contains e.g. w&b, fuel data, airplane information etc.

2 data fields for take off, representing ground roll and take off distance and the same for landing would be great. 

What do you think?
Best regards
M.

I didn't understand the original question in this thread. I'm not clear what two fields are desired, and where. SkyDemon arrives at a total weight calculation, this is visible in the Flight Details pull-down, and a projected weight upon landing which is visible in the weight&balance screen. What other output from SkyDemon is helpful for your takeoff/landing performance calculations?
