Hi all,
I understood "Off plane" and "Two planes" options meanwhile I dont understand in which case to use "Source plane" and "Target plane"?
 
Hi cbf,

Welcome to the forum. :welcome:

If you look at the manual that comes with IMFD51 there should be a section that explains all of the transfer orbits.

I believe it is Appendix A at the end of the document. If you still have questions don't hesitate to ask. :)
 
If you get the older (4.21) version of IMFD, the manual there has stuff left out of the newer versions. While the interface has changed the principles remain the same, so it's still a good reference.

Edit-----

Get IMFD 4.21 at Jarmonik's site

Just use the method which takes the least "Total DV" in the given situation.
