AGENDA

Discuss current IPAC - Integrated vs Standalone

Complete PPC without mission planning data



The IPAC-H60 program automates the mission planning process for the H-60 aircraft by integrating with Portable Flight Planning Software (PFPS) via bi-directional communication to provide both performance planning and mission planning data from a single application.

The Flight Performance Models (FPMs) embedded in the IPAC-H60 are based on numerous sources of data (flight test, test stand, computer simulation and aerodynamic theory) and in many cases the data derived from the IPAC-H60 application is beyond the level of accuracy available from the H-60 Operator’s Manuals.



When the IPAC-H60 application is installed on a computer with PFPS, IPAC is considered to be in the “Integrated” mode. When the IPAC-H60 application is installed on a computer without PFPS, IPAC is considered to be in the “Standalone” mode.In the integrated mode, upon opening of the IPAC application, PFPS is also opened and operating in the background until selection of a PFPS component (PFPS PreMission, PFPS Point Editor, CFPS, or FalclonView) from the IPAC toolbar. Anytime a New, Open, Save or Save As function is commanded, both IPAC and PFPS may generate messages and/or dialogs for user interaction.



In IPAC Integrated, the default aircraft upon opening of the program is the H-60A (unless IPAC is opened from a PFPS route utilizing either an H-60L or H-60M). In IPAC Standalone, once the program is closed and reopened, the new H-60 aircraft model selected in the previous IPAC-H60 session will be the default H-60 model.When mission planning with IPAC, it is imperative that internal fuel, external fuel, store weight, store drag and store download values are input and/or adjusted in IPAC, not PFPS. PFPS does not allow for the correct breakdown of internal and external weight, drag and download values to provide the necessary data for H-60 PPC calculations of aircraft capabilities and/or limitations.
