How can I build a simple prc for weight calculations in the jet I fly?
It would make my day easier if I could design a simple calculator for my treo that would be able to calculate the weight of the jet I fly. I have to do this with a calculator 6 times a day, and it's getting kind of old. enter airplane weight: (say 31000 lbs) enter jumpseater weight: (if yes, 190 lbs) enter # of passengers: (each passenger = 189 lbs, so calc number*189) enter # of bags: (each bag= 30 lbs, so calc number * 30) --- zero fuel weight (Field that would sum the totals from above) --- enter fuel qty (such as 12,000 lbs) enter taxi fuel (such as 300 lbs) --- Takeoff weight: Field that would calc zero fuel weight + fuel qty - taxi fuel --- enter burnoff fuel (such as 6,000 lbs) --- Calculate Takeoff weight - burnoff fuel (this would give me landing weight) If only I could take filemaker or excel along. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/

I would suggest that you simply use a programmable calculator, and there are plenty of those for PalmOS. -- Bob www.rmobile.ca -- Mobile software for handheld computers and smartphones -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/

Mike, >If only I could take filemaker or excel along. Consider Documents To Go from Dataviz (see www.dataviz.com ) and you can take Excel spreadsheets along. Doug -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/

Have you considered "Quicksheet" for Palm? - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Palm Developer Forum" Sent: Tuesday, March 07, 2006 8:33 AM Subject: How can I build a simple prc for weight calculations in the jet I fly? > It would make my day easier if I could design a simple calculator for my treo that would be able to calculate the weight of the jet I fly.

You could take Filemaker along. I'm assuming you already looked into their mobile solution. http://www.filemaker.com/products/fmm/ -Jeremy -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 07, 2006 5:34 AM To: Palm Developer Forum Subject: How can I build a simple prc for weight calculations in the jet I fly?

I have created a flight planning application that does these weight and balance calculations - http://lauriedavis9.tripod.com/copilot/ The trial version is fully functional.
