Hi Pierre, here is new flight model, place it to the main Concorde folder and overwrite the old one. Get ready for slightly different performance especially at high loads.

The new Navigraph database is ready to use.
A new CPS-NG release will be soon published on Flightsim.to.
The Cycle 2310 is included in this release.

Hi Gaston,

Great news.

CFM can be used with any supersonic (only) flight.

Waiting to test the new flight model... ;)

That reference curve is valid for JFK-CDG route or can be used anywhere?
Yesterday i was reproducing trip of minister Chirac from Lima to Hao in 1987, one of the longest non-stop flight
of Concorde. See official reports from pictures. I landed with only 400kg fuel more than reported 15.400kg.
Same distance, same weights. I will implement that new flightmodel in next Heritage package update.
Seems accurate and without CFM tool i could not make it. Good job Pierre.

Hello Captain's,

Our friend Richard Stefan from Navigraph sent to me a prototype of the new Database for CPS-NG.
I tested it and it requires some adjustments.
We should get the final one in October...

Hi Gaston,

The curve seems perfect.
Flying FL560 does not save fuel if air temperature is ISA minus, only if ISA plus and depends of aircraft weight.
I would prefer talking about weight and temperature instead of distance to locate the FL600.

Experimental flight model proves that current flight model is overpowered so i reduced engine power a bit which demands higher fuel flow to match black reference line from CFM and also is not easy to climb directly to FL600 but needs to be done by steps along route. See charts for both trips between JFK and CDG. Western route achieved FL600 at around 800nm before JFK and eastern route only upto FL560 to save some fuel which is clearly visible from the graph.
