AeroW&B

AeroW&B is an extremely versatile weight and balance calculator designed for general aviation use. It features both a tabular output, and a graphic weight and balance representation. The app allows you to create as many aircraft types as you need. There are no ‘in app’ purchases to 'hopefully' get the aircraft type you are flying. You can create the aircraft types yourself, or if having problems email me your aircraft info and I can do it for you. Once you have created an aircraft type, you can create as many aircraft of that type as you want. It is perfect for both the student at a flight school that may have a number of 172′s, 150′s etc, or for the renter.

Need a quick gouge on whether or not a longer flight is doable, and how many people you could bring. AeroW&B features a 'Fuel Estimate' utility to do the Distance-Rate-Time calculations for you.

You can email, print or AirDrop your weight and balance calculations. You can do the same with your aircraft data for other AeroW&B users for their use.

W&B

I will do another rating. I had a very difficult time setting up W&B and configuring it. Most of the difficulty was most likely "me." With the help of an additional tutorial I was able to configure two Cessna 172's and a Cessna 150. It works very well and it's nice to see a graphical representation of your aircraft's W&B. So, take it with a grain of salt. For me, difficult to configure, but once you done it the second time around is much easier. The program works very well. Using iPad v1

Absolutely the the most useless app I've wasted my money on. I have just spent the last four hours trying to configure the program for a Mooney an it will not save any inputs I make. Too bad everyone doesn't fly a 172! Support page is just as worthless! The tutorial doesn't even represent the same pages that I'm dealing with. SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!!!!!!

Very difficult to set up and no help or hints. I kind of have our 182 loaded but, now, here do enter station weights. I guess I'll go spend some more money


Watch the tutorial is a MUST!

This is a great app that plugged a hole in my electronic flight bag that includes a flight planner, moving maps and approach plates. I was stumbling around in the dark with the installation until I found the two tutorials for the iPhone and iPad. Without them learning how to use the apps is frustrating. Go there first to learn how for each unit. BTW when will Zero Fuel Weight and Trip Fuel estimate be available for iPad version? Charles L

I spent about a hour and could not figure out how to set it up. Read the tutorial and tried the video. No sound on the video. Completely useless. Would like my money back. PS. I am a GA pilot with an IFR rating. I don't know how others got it to work.


Works Great For Me

I'm not sure why others are having such a hard time setting this up. It only took me about 10 minutes without looking at the tutorials. The process seems pretty simple: 1) define the boundaries of your envelop, 2) define the various loading stations; all within the aircraft definition page, 3) define your specific airplane's CG location and connect it to the envelop panel you set up in steps 1 and 2, finally 4) define your loads at each station for each flight going forward. I particularly like the idea of snapshotting the page and forwarding the completed picture to my email for historic records. This is a pretty good app and easy to use in my opinion. Definitely worth the $3.


Don't bother

Not easy to use. Don't waste the $3.


Needs improvement
None wanted!

Sounds good was initially difficult to set up, got past that & entered W & B info; all done however at main screen--nothing! My aircraft, information not listed, not shown & no other menus or buttons to use-help file not helpful--at this time app is worthless


Problem with ver3
ddt5420

I think there is a problem now with version 3. I have an iPad2 and in portrait position I can only see the W&B chart and have no access to the menu or weight table. This is not convenient; in the cockpit I mount the iPad in portrait position and can not make changes in flight. I don't recall having this problem in earlier versions
