See exactly what changes between Lite, Standard and Pro.
| Feature | Lite | Standard | Pro |
|---|---|---|---|
| Performance Calculations | |||
| Takeoff Dispatch RTOW/PLTOW, derates, assumed temp/FLEX, optimum V-speeds and trim — with full obstacle and engine-failure-procedure accountability. | |||
| Landing Dispatch Regulatory landing-dispatch limits, most limiting factor, quick-turnaround weight and icing effects. | |||
| Landing Enroute In-flight landing distances for the current autobrake, conditions and configuration, plus the brake-cooling schedule. | |||
| Live Weather integration Automatic METAR/TAF download and decoding, imported straight into your calculations. | |||
| IVAO/VATSIM ATIS Pull the current online-network ATIS straight into your dispatch. | |||
| Real World D-ATIS Soon Real-world Digital ATIS feed for airports that broadcast one. | |||
| Auto Most Favorable Landing Dispatch Automatically suggests the best-performing runway when landing performance is limiting. | |||
| Advanced Takeoff Bug Card New Your entire takeoff picture on one glanceable bug card: V-speeds and trim setting alongside RTO distance, brake cooling schedule, engine-failure procedure, and MSA — everything you need, intelligently combined into a single view so it's there the instant you need it most. | |||
| Balked Landing Weight Calculation New Know your escape margin before you need it. VPT instantly computes the maximum landing weight your selected runway supports for a go-around, using conservative OEI climb criteria, then lays your Max Balked Landing Weight, current landing weight, and margin side by side — an operator-style safety check built right into the landing workflow. | |||
| Database & NOTAM | |||
| Airport Database Worldwide commercial airports, engine-failure procedures and millions of obstacles — refreshed on average three times a day. | |||
| Engine Failure Procedure Predefined engine-failure escape paths per runway, with obstacle accountability along the track. | |||
| Live Airport Updates Active Monitoring: the Provider's performance officers turn worldwide NOTAMs into temporary runway changes — cranes, antennas, AIP SUPP, length changes and more — at covered airports. | |||
| Automated Runway Monitoring Automatically identifies runway closures from NOTAMs across the full VPT airport database and depicts them by current time. | |||
| Automatic NOTAM Download Pulls all NOTAMs for the selected airport automatically — handy in case of diversion. | |||
| Manual NOTAM Input Manually edit runway distances, add obstacles, remove segments/clearway/stopway or add missing intersections. | |||
| Failure & Dispatch | |||
| Non-Normal Checklist (NNC) Performance and configuration penalties from the QRH during malfunctions — unreliable airspeed, hydraulics, engine failures. | |||
| Minimum Equipment List (MEL) Dispatch with failed items that affect performance, like an anti-skid inop or an EEC fail. | |||
| Configuration Deviation List (CDL) Operate with missing external components (fairings, antennas, panels) and the matching performance adjustments. | |||
| Electronic Flight Log Planned for VPT 2.2.0 | |||
| SimBrief Import Soon Import your latest SimBrief plan straight into the EFB and performance tools. | |||
| Multiple SimBrief Import Soon Queue several flight plans for the day and switch between saved flights in one click. | |||
| OFP Visualization Review the operational flight plan in an interface built for the final fuel decision. | |||

| Fillable Digital Navlog Fill timing, fuel checks and position reports into your navlog during the flight. | |||
| Weather & NOTAM Update Refresh OFP weather and NOTAMs with a single swipe, without leaving the tool. | |||
| Manual Weather & NOTAM Search Add custom airports to monitor — ideal for evaluating diversions in bad weather. | |||
| Windaloft Update Refresh cruise winds from the latest official forecasts (00/06/12/18Z). | |||
| Passenger Manifest Generate a realistic passenger manifest based on departure and arrival countries. | |||
| Navlog Diversion Mode Switch the navlog to an alternate in one action, with automatic routing updates. | |||
| Navlog Inflight Rerouting Add waypoints from a worldwide nav database and recompute progress and fuel. | |||
| AI Copilot fuel remarks AI-generated remarks that flag what needs attention for your final fuel decision. | |||
| Journey Log Keep a complete record of your flying as part of your digital paperwork. | |||
| Aircraft Checklist | |||

Calculation limits exist for fair usage, not to restrict your flying. Here's what the numbers actually mean in practice.
At 10 calculations per flight (RTOW, actual dispatch, alternate runway, landing, variations) the monthly limit covers ~15 flights on Lite, ~40 on Standard, ~60 on Pro. Demo airport calculations don't count toward the limit. You can track your remaining calculations anytime from within the app.
Create a free account and access VPT on the 16 demo airports with no credit card and no time limit.
The 16 free airports were chosen to give you a meaningful VPT demo across different performance scenarios, with nearby airport pairs that let you fly complete A-to-B sectors.
Demo airports remain available for full features like NOTAM watch even with VPT Lite.
VPT is more than software hosted on a server. Its airport database relies on professional aviation source data, continuous specialist maintenance and operational monitoring. Your subscription helps support the data, infrastructure and people required to keep that performance environment current.
Want to see what that involves?
See how the VPT airport database is built and maintainedYes — the free account gives you VPT Pro feature access on 16 demo airports, with no time limit and no credit card required. It covers the entire fleet and the currently available EFB workflow: takeoff and landing performance, digital navlog, checklists and journey log.
The only limit on the free demo airports is online Library storage; local storage still works. Features marked Soon or Planned in the comparison above are not yet available.
Refund requests for a first subscription payment may be considered within 7 calendar days, subject to the conditions in our Terms of Use. Renewals are not eligible for refund. You can cancel at any time; access continues until the end of the paid billing period.
We strongly recommend trying VPT on the 16 free airports before subscribing.
VPT does not rely on direct simulator integration for its core performance calculations. It can therefore be used alongside MSFS 2020/2024, Prepar3D, X-Plane 11/12 and professional simulators. Aircraft and add-on profile availability varies by variant — check the Fleet for details.
The limit exists purely for fair usage — for regular simmers it's transparent and you'll never hit it. Yearly subscriptions include extra calculations that stay linked to your account and can be spent throughout the year to cover peak usage seamlessly.
Discovering VPT? If you just want to experiment, do your heavy testing across the 16 free airports — they cover major international hubs as well as performance-limited fields around the globe.
Visa, MasterCard, American Express, PayPal and bank transfers (selected regions), processed securely through 2Checkout. On Apple devices you can also subscribe through the App Store.
Subscriptions purchased through the App Store may be priced higher because of platform fees. For the lowest available VPT price, subscribe through VPT Web. Your subscription will then work across all supported platforms.
Yes. One VPT subscription works everywhere — iPadOS, Android tablets, macOS (Apple Silicon) and the Web app. Just sign in with your account on any supported device.
We have nothing against it, but keep a few things in mind. A VPT account is generally tied to a single user — one SimBrief ID, one set of preferences — which makes sharing between different people less practical.
Where it works well is across your own devices: a single account is perfect for a shared cockpit or an instructor station.
