aerocontext-core 0.4.2

//! Pilot-supplied aircraft performance, the input a route brief needs to
//! turn distance into time, altitude, and fuel.
//!
//! Every figure here is **advisory** and comes from the operator's POH/AFM
//! — this crate computes a simplified, no-wind estimate to drive briefing
//! requests (which forecast hour to ask for, how the route climbs and
//! descends), never a performance or fuel guarantee. The performance ring
//! is the highest-criticality advisory arithmetic in the system; treat its
//! outputs as planning hints, not dispatch numbers.
