How does STAR support the role and needs of Pilots?
• Instantly accessing runway analysis and weight & balance data through a simple online method. • Pilots no longer have to graph the final zero fuel and takeoff center of gravity to ensure the aircraft is loaded within limits. With STAR, data on all variables is computer-calculated using exact atmospheric conditions, aircraft inoperative systems, aircraft icing, etc. This removes the possibility of human calculation error and reduces the time involved for calculation, freeing up time for the pilot to accomplish checklists; discuss departure procedures, and perform other pre-departure actions.
