Abstract
Airframe and engine combination gives equal potential to every operator with such a hardware combination. Operator's way of utilization makes its use to the maximum or less. Data related to aircraft performance is one of the basic elements in daily aircraft operations and optimal utiliza-tion of airframe and engine combination in real life environment. New technological solutions and systems affected performance data calculation. Today's laptop computer technology has already boarded the flight deck together with pilots. This paper is to present possible structure and proposed application of one of the system together with envisaged effects of its use in real life commercial aircraft operations. It will present the over-view of the system with considerations taken into account when designing and developing it; it's potentials and advantages compared to paper based performance data calculation and optimiza-tion: and the most important how it is understood as a tool in very demanding, unpredictable air-line operations of today.
