Cold WXR Altitude Correction vs Runway Wind Usage & Stats

Cold Weather Altitude Correction is a tool for visualizing and calculating approaches at low temperatures. In addition you will find a decoder for METAR RWY Reports. The calculation is based on ICAO PANS OPS Doc 8168. It uses a more accurate method as the well-known 4 per correction, which becomes imprecise for temperatures below -15°C. Conventional tools are calculating only a list of temperature corrected altitudes. This tool is designed more closely to a real approach. Corrected altitudes are presented in a graphical interface. A table of distances with related corrected altitudes can be calculated. With only field elevation and temperature a graphic layout will be shown: - glide path down to the runway - corrected MSA - corrected MDA - corrected GPA - corrected custom ALT Moving a yellow dot along the glide path down to the runway will show any corrected altitudes with their related distances to threshold or to a DME station. Distance - Altitude Table: A table with distance and corrected altitude can be calculated.  This table is similar to the distance / altitude tables known from instrument approach charts, but it will show corrected altitudes. You can choose between an approach type based on "distance to threshold" (GPS) or based on a defined DME station. A handbook is included in the app itself. For night operations you can switch to dark mode.

Use Runway Wind to assess the headwind, tailwind and crosswind components affecting you on takeoff and landing. Spin the arrows to align the runway and the wind, and use the slider to set the wind speed. Wind components for each runway is given in easily understandable terms. You can lock the runway rotation by tapping the lock symbol to avoid inadvertent readjustment of the runway. Two icons indicate the wind: a wind sock and a wind chart symbol. These serve as a reference to avoid mistakes and confusion when reading wind charts and when observing the wind sock at the airfield. Runway Wind is for reference and educational purposes only. Always make your own judgement - other factors than the wind may play a role. The results of Runway Wind are only as accurate as the data you input.
