ONLY FOR SIMULATION
This is an aviation tool which you can calculate your top of descent with
What is it?
This will be a project uploaded on github, I am working hard to make this tool as an aviator tool for free to everyone.
I am not working on this project anymore
Installation
open the zip and unzip it.
Afterwards, drag it to your desktop or wherever and open the neckotool.exe.
As I am an "unknown publisher", the windows defender usually advises against opening the neckotool.exe.
More about that here
Also the source code is available for everyone in case you have any doubts.
Issues
If you get any issues go to the Github repository and I will help you as soon as possible.
DISCLAIMER
no further works on this project. Ignore any "coming very soon" text.
So much data for such a small program. Sorry- but i am affraid thatthis is a virus or something else. Do not install -

Hey, I understand your concerns but the project is open source so you can see the whole code of it, moreover you can search for "electronjs" on the internet to understand how I built this project.
If you have any other problems please let me know.
Also please do not just say not to install it without first testing it and expressing that thought without prior knowledge!

I could use a calculator to figure out the cruising altitude when planning a flight for the A320 neo. Anyone know of any?

Hi!
If you want to figure out your perfect cruise altitude, then go to simbrief because it depends on the airways and more. You can only calculate the top of climb! I hope you understood

Why does the install contain 25,611 items.... do we need all that to run a small simple tool??

Hi Charles, I don't know how much you know of coding so its basically a file with code that works with a framework and I compressed this to a application and that will automatically create all these files to let a simple file of code run to an exe!
so don't worry just open the exe and you'll be done

Calculating TOD has never been so easy before?
TOD = Altitude to loose x 3 + deceleration segment
ROD = Groundspeed x 5
Deceleration (works fine for most jets):
Props (including turboprops) have no trouble slowing down while following a 3 degree path, for turboprops there is also a rule of thumb for that:
Works perfect in real life, have been using it for over 10 years no application needed.

basically using a calculator is always easier than calculating without a calculator and you don't have to use it if you don't need it, its your opinion

Looks nice and easy to use. Will absolutely try it. Been waiting for something like this. Also, how much does wind and speed account for in a decent? This is intended as a general question.

Hi, first thanks for your feedback, wind calculation is not included yet, but I will try my best to update it soon so you can calculate the wind components with the descent so you will get a perfect descent!
