Review
Pros: Quick and easy AFTN conversion(s) and crosswind calculations (that show wind direction arrow), color support, keypad to enter numbers.
Cons: Lacks additional weather conversion options, written for use with Airbus A320 and A330 aircraft (but works with others), no hardware button assignment.
Notes: Best freeware wind calculator we've seen, tested by several Lufthansa pilots.

Could change from metric to US measurements, had ability to change defaults (I.E. crosswind and min fuel limitations (time) limitaions)." |
