Calculating v-speeds, fuel, weight etc.

I'm curious about how people are calculating stuff. The V-1 gauge doesn't seem to work in P3D 4+ and either does the FMC. Is it all manual?

If you want to do it the old fashioned way from original sources:

https://www.boeing.com/resources/boeing ... ps/727.pdf

Click on Aircraft Performance and scroll for the various charts.

If you want some basic flight sim checklists that will get you in the ballpark, try these:

Probably some other sources online if you search around?
