I dowloaded the Cessna 208b profile. However, I still had warnings in Little Navmap that indicated errors calculating stuff like TOC, TOD and some fuel related issues. I've been searching the web for troubleshooting, so far with no luck.

Hey thanks for showing this feature! Never know it existed. Just a note on climb speed, on all the props, turbos and jets I’ve flown we always use IAS (and Mach) as climb speed, never TAS. So you did it right. cheers!
Great video!! I'm starting to use LilNavMap for all my flight plans... creating an airplane performance and using it while creating the flight plan makes the flight plan more realistic. Thanks!!
So you mean I have to manually type in the aircraft performance data for every airplane in MSFS? Wow, as much as is packed into little nav map, I can't believe it doesn't have a feature to automatically import all aircraft data directly from the simulator software.
There is a set of performance profiles already available on the LittleNavMap site. Not all the MSFS aircraft are there, but it's a good start for the more popular aircraft. Also, look in the X-Plane directory to see if there is an aircraft that might match.
After posting this question on another of your videos, I found this. Do you know if anyone has created an importable performance database for the MSFS2020 aircraft. I did this in FSX with PFPX and TopCat, and it took forever. If no one has done this, maybe I'll do it. Forget it! Just saw the comment a few posts below!
Is very easy to make it this video makes it complicated, all you need to know how much fuel you plane takes and you make a flight plan and at the end you record it, you can have different profiles for low flying or high altitude flying and different power settings since is you who records the flight.
Thanks for making this! Question. Can you just wait until the end of the flight to copy the data for each flight phase? I see you are doing it mid-flight, sometimes multiple times. I'm in VR so it's a little harder to bounce back & forth to LNM on my PC screen. --- edit: I kinda answered my own question through testing. It's mostly yes, you can wait, except for your descent, which I found you want to copy/merge before you start doing your approach procedure because your behavior will change to fit the procedure and skew your numbers. Also, if you want to do these flights from sea-level airports there is a list of low alt. airports on Wikipedia, so you don't have to just use this NOLA route every time. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lowest_airports
For those people (me) that do not like to enter that stuff: littlenavmap.org/downloads/Aircraft%20Performance/
The MSFS planes are in that directory.
Not all of them, though. The Virus that he's using as an example doesn't have a performance profile, for instance.
Thanks, exactly the information I've been looking for (I think). I'd like to learn, how to select aircraft you're about to take off with.

Hey, thank you very much! I'm new to Sim flying and this helped me a lot.

Perfect ! I need to create a profile (unless you can share with me) for Fokker F28, unable finding online.

GREAT video! Would there be any issue using a performance file from another sim (FSX and Prepar3D....for example)...as least as a starting point?

where did you find the poh for this?
Ok too much shit is going on here does anyone have a profile for PMDG 737-600?
Just read the instructions tutorials, this guy makes it very complicated, is very simple to create once you get to know the procedure
