FlexPerf™ Trip Performance Airdrop ModuleThe FlexPerf Trip Performance Module for the Universal Avionics SBAS-FMS and MMMS provides advanced fuel saving predictions for aircraft performance in Climb, Cruise and Descent phases of flight.

The heart of FlexPerf is a “flexible” intelligent design feature continuously recording actual aircraft fuel burn during every phase of flight. Using this data, FlexPerf applies improvements to the baseline aircraft performance data stored in the FMS/MMMS. The resulting calculations provide aircraft performance predictions to build a performance profile computed with 95% accuracy.

Airdrop is an optional module available for Universal Avionics MMMS that calculates an Air Release Point (ARP), and provides guidance and steering to a position offset where the delivery should exit the aircraft for a landing at the desired drop zone. Specific parachute ballistic and aircraft data can be conveniently created offline via a Universal-supplied PC tool.

Airdrop delivery profiles can be created directly through the MMMS Control Display Unit (CDU), or ahead of time with the offline PC tool. Once loaded, the profile can be changed or edited by the flight crew prior to commencing the airdrop release.
