Fsbuild-2 Flight Planner

Hi and sorry for my english.

I create EMBRAER 170/175/195 profiled based on real Embraer Flight Planning Manual. I have problem, becouse my profile don't work, it looks like fsbuild don't read it.
I add zip with profiles for ERJ195 and flight plan created with it. Can someone look wahat's wrong in this profiles?

Best regards

Just a guess, but you need to enter data into the fsb_aircraft.cfg file so that FSB knows the file exists... for the EMB 170 the entry looks like this:

[Embraer 170-100] -- (Patryk Mytych) ---
WeightUnit=KGS
PayloadWeight=
ReserveFuel=:45
AlternateFuel=
HoldFuel=:30
ExtraFuel=
TaxiFuel=160
ApproachFuel=360
OperEmptyWeight=21400
MaxTakeoffWeight=37200
MaxZeroFuelWeight=30140
MaxLandingWeight=32800
MaxFuelWeight=9335
ImageFile=
PerformanceData=Embraer170.prf

No is not a reason, I have my own entry in fsb_aircraft.cfg:

[ERJ195LR]
WeightUnit=KGS
CallSign=
PayloadWeight=
ReserveFuel=
AlternateFuel=
HoldFuel=:30
ExtraFuel=%3
TaxiFuel=28/min
ApproachFuel=235
OperEmptyWeight=28970
MaxTakeoffWeight=50790
MaxZeroFuelWeight=42500
MaxLandingWeight=45000
MaxFuelWeight=13100
PerformanceData=ERJ195.prf
MaxCruise=41000
ClimbFuelbias=0.0
CruiseFuelbias=0.0
DescentFuelbias=0.0

Problem is somwere in ERJ195.prf files, that fsbuild don't take data from this. If I change to another, what any other, the calculation is ok. I think that I made some mistake when I was creating .prf files with performance data

Hi all,

This little problem intrigued me, as I want to do a profile or two myself. I don't know if anybody else resolved it, so I thought I'd put up my resolution for interested parties to see.

It was indeed the ERJ195.PRF file that caused a problem. The problem part was the [CLIMB] section.

The first 3 lines originally read -

[CLIMB]
ALT TAS ROC FUEL
06000 272 2380 172

The lines SHOULD read -

[CLIMB]
;ALT TAS ROC FUEL
06000 272 2380 172

After that I was getting believable results. I don't know if there are any other problems with it but looked ok to me.

[pm to the OP]
