Hi

When planning a flight fro Denmark to Marocco in a Cirrus SR22T with indicated speed 170kt I get data for Best altitude. If I change to a Cessna 172 with indicated speed of 100kt I get no data. What is the correlation between speed and Best altitude?

This is something you need to work through with customer support, so they can try to pin down the exact thing which is the flight not to be modelled and then pass it on to the developers if necessary. Could you contact them?


Thanks Tim, I will contact customer support.


No error in SkyDemon. The reason to no weather data is that my unrealistic long route takes more than the weather forecasts can show - more than 24 hours. Thanks for help and a lot of good information about Best Altitude calculations. Thanks to support for a very quick response.

Last evening I had 22 pilots and 1 instructor for setup and education in SkyDemon. For those with other planning tools it opened up a new and better World.‌‌
