ETOPS information

FliteBrief now presents enhanced processing of Terminal Area Forecast (TAF) information.

In the previous version, FliteBrief only provided the information contained within the first part of the received TAF. This information is available in the ETOPS Release sheet under the Dispatch module.

In version 1.27, FliteBrief decodes the entire TAF based on the earliest and latest arrival times and displays the following information on the ETOPS Release sheet:
  • TAF trends
  • Crosswind figure: The crosswind figure uses all TAF data for more accurate calculation.
  • Weather:
    • Worst weather is highlighted with the appropriate color based on the predetermined minima settings.
    • Full overview of relevant weather information for a given period
Note: To customize the TAF information displayed on the ETOPS Release sheet, contact your FliteBriefaccount representative.
