The spreadsheet has been developed using aircraft performance data freely published by Airbus, Boeing, British Aerospace and Bombardier. The following aircraft types are simulated, and more will be added later. You will need to download LIBRE OFFICE which is freely available and does not interface directly with MSFS, so can be safely used with any MSFS update.
CHANGE LOG - 15th Nov 2022 VERSION PERF08
ADDTION OF THE BOMBARDIER CRJ550, CRJ700, CRJ900 AND CRJ1000.
ALL PERFORMANCE CALCULATIONS HAVE BEEN REVISED FURTHER TO ENSURE GREATER ACCURACY WITH AIRCRAFT MANUFACTURERS DATA AND FLIGHTSIM PERFORMANCE.
REVISED FLEX TEMP SYSTEM ADOPTED TO MAKE EASIER SELECTION OF FLEX TEMPERATURES
NEW AUTOLAND SELECTION ADDED TO LANDING SELECTION, WHICH AUTOMATICLLY REDUCES THE LANDING DISTANCES TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT LANDING FROM THE GLIDESLOPE RATHER THAN THE THRESHOLD.
MANY MINOR CORRECTIONS
AIRCRAFT TYPES INCLUDED
AIRBUS A318, A319, A319 NEO, A320, A320 NEO, A321, A321 NEO, A330-200, A330-300, A330-800 NEO, A330-900 NEO, A380-800.
BRITISH AEROSPACE BAE 146-100, 146-200, 146-200 QT/QC, 146-300, 146-300 QT.
BOEING B737-200, B737-600, B737-700, B737-700BDSF, B737-800, B737-BBJ, B747-400, B747-400F, B747-8, B747-8F, B787-10
BOMBARDIER CRJ550, CRJ700, CRJ900 AND CRJ1000.
The spreadsheet has a number of sheets selected by tabs at the bottom left. These are:
HELP. Instructions on how to use the spreadsheets.
COMPLEX. The full version with all the bells and whistles.
EASY. A simpler version similar to those used by pilots in the flight deck.
LOG. A sheet that helps you to log details of your flights if needed.
RWY The tables of runway data used by the simulator which can be edited.
ACFT. Aircraft data used by the spreadsheet in order to calculate the performance for each aircraft.
This was designed purely as a private project to assist me with my flight simulation. I have not had access to the wealth of information that would be required to create a complete aircraft performance chart for each individual airfield, so use with care. The runway performance indicated only takes into account the runway lengths indicated, whereas in real life a lot of other factors, such as local terrain needs to be considered. Having said that it will assist in making informed decisions on safe take off and landing.
FUTURE PLANS
AIRBUS A310
Once aircraft are fully released for MSFS then the existing specifications and weights will be amended to more closely match the weights and performance. More aircraft types will be added once the performance data is available.
Enjoy
Sorry you have had problems.
I just downloaded a copy and it worked fine with the latest version of Libre Office. Perhaps you could try another download or update your Libre Office?
I will try to update the airfield database, but its a monumental task. If you want to add a runway its not difficult:
1) Select the the RWY tab at the bottom.
2) Scroll down to the ICAO indicator of the airfield.
3) Column D has the first runway designator for the airfield and the next column has the runway length in feet. You can add or change runways at will.
I'm currently working on the next updated version and it should be out within a month.

And maybe it is because dublin recently finished building 10L but I can't see 10L on the drop down (I understand that it cannot be updated daily, and understand that you are not going to be updating it all the time, just though you aught to know about it)

Sorry you have been experiencing problems.
I have just downloaded the newest version of Libre Office and also the spreadsheet, and they seem to work OK, straight out of the box. I noticed a few minor graphical errors which don't affect the calculations, which I will tidy up shortly. I believe the slightly earlier version of Libre Office might have caused the issues. Could I ask you to try again? Good Luck.
I am in the final stages of a major, more accurate update with many more aircraft and a new design. hopefully I will get it finished within a month and then release it after testing.

I used to work for BAe and I have managed to obtain some Manufacturers Operations Manuals.
There is a document available online, if you can search for it, entitled:
RJ_Tech_data_at_a_glance__April_2004
In addition I fly the 146 almost exclusively on MSFS, so check the data on every flight.
I have just amended my version of the spreadsheet with an improved set of calculations and a much more accurate set of flex data. I will be publishing the update here as soon as I have checked all the figures with real flights. It does take a bit of time to get it all working so it might be a few weeks. There will be a lot of additional aircraft added.
Cheers

May I ask where did you get performance data for the BAE 146?
Thanks

Well it does work so can I suggest you re-download it. Perhaps you need to enter the Libre Office TOOLS section at the top and select PROTECTION and switch it off, then try again. Sorry you had a problem,
Hi Intimidati. Airbus do publish general performance data for all their aircraft. Its never going to be as accurate as the data that the Arline's use, but its not rubbish either. Search google for AIRBUS COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT AC-330 and you will find a very detailed pdf of airport planning for the A330 which includes take off and landing data.
Matterno. Well I am currently still working on the update. I'm including the A350's new versions of the A330's and the B777's and B787's. You will have to trust me.... I suspect I have another months work to do.
Thanks Baselunarbeta.

However my Office 365 says "we found a problem in PERF08.ods. Do you want us to try to recover as much as we can?" After recovering it works but some field are missing, not sure the logic works properly. So if you are still maintaining the product it definitely worth checking. Anyway thanks for sharing the file!
