Not a high priority for me, but my daughter-in-law is in a flying club and on iPad takes iFly into different aircraft with different cruise speeds, etc. Possibly, as iFly use on iPad becomes more popular this scenario might become more common?

Be nice if she could have separate "load saved profile" or something for at least two aircraft with significantly different specs instead of having to remember to retweak the profile.

Although I fly just one aircraft if there were alternate performance saved profiles I'd probably make one called "slow cruise" "default cruise" and "max cruise.."

A while back, Shane told me that these are in the mill. In addition to multiple profiles, IIRC the plan is to create a mechanism for users to share profiles. That will be very handy, as it is a lot easier to check a profile than it is to create one completely from scratch.

Ideally, iFly will evolve to the point where W&B is included in the profiles and can easily be checked before a flight where it might be questionable.

Look at fltplan.com to see a fairly mature implementation of profiles.

You are correct. We'll be adding multiple aircraft profiles with some baseline templates as well. These will allow us to better utilize the upcoming NRST improvement page, Fuel Price feature we are working on and better allow us to add features like W&B or even Flight Planning with Winds, etc. Stay tuned and have a great July 4th weekend.
