Flight
Aircraft Performance Calculator
Produce a rough estimate of an aircraft's range from fuel quantity, cruise altitude, outside air temperature, gross weight, and aircraft category. A back-of-the-envelope sanity check, not a replacement for a flight-planning system.

Flight
Flight Risk Assessment Calculator
Produce a numerical risk score for a planned general-aviation flight from weather, aircraft complexity, mission type, and pilot experience inputs. A pre-flight self-check intended to surface trends, not a replacement for go/no-go judgement.
