Atmospheric Landing Charts: Pinpoint landings! [NEW UPDATE: No Protractor Required!]

Sorry to necro this thread (again), would we be able to generate a phase angle/periapsis graph with the x-axis only covering 0.7 to 2.5? I'm just running a couple of experiments and so far, I've noticed that using this method with Ferram Aerospace seems to cause overshoots of targets. Having a bigger graph to play with will be quite useful for me to mark corrections.

Still a very useful resource. Just rediscovered this after messing around with spaceplanes today.

Many thanks for your efforts here, alterbaron.

I just wish someone would create a standalone mod (not mechjeb) that performed aerobraking/capture predictions!

This (Trajectories) mod is supposed to do that and a tiny bit more, but recent changes to stock Aerodynamics have caused a lojnger delay in it's updating because there's no easy way (yet) to calculate WHAT will happen to your vessel as it hits atmo.
