Two new versions of Smartsoft give additional options for weight and balance

By General Aviation News Staff · April 8, 2005 ·

Smartsoft has released two new versions of its weight and balance software for mobile phones: Flight WTK 2.0 and Flight WTK Lite version.

Flight WTK enables pilots to perform weight and balance on their cell phone in as little as 40 seconds. Flight WTK uses a mobile phone as a computing device and runs like a software application.

While Flight WTK 2.0 contains quite a few improvements over the previous version, it also brings several new features to pilots, especially helicopter pilots by supporting longitudinal graphs for helicopters.

Another new feature is the ability to download new aircraft specs instead of inputting this data manually.

The Lite version of Flight WTK is free and comes with one aircraft already installed, the Piper PA28-181. It has essentially the same functionality as Flight WTK 2.0, with one exception. If the user wants more than the already installed aircraft, he has to pay to download new ones.

Cost is $29.95 per aircraft.

Flight WTK is available for virtually all mobile phones that support Java(TM).
