Cold temperature altitude corrections for pilots based on ICAO PANS-OPS. Visualize corrected approach altitudes and calculate distance/altitude tables.
Cold Weather Altitude Correction is a tool for pilots to calculate and visualize cold temperature altitude corrections for instrument approaches.
Calculations are based on ICAO PANS-OPS Doc 8168. The app uses a more accurate calculation method than the commonly used 4% correction, which becomes increasingly inaccurate at temperatures below -15°C.
Unlike conventional tools that simply provide a list of temperature-corrected altitudes, Cold Weather Altitude Correction visualizes the corrections in the context of an actual approach.
GRAPHICAL APPROACH VIEW
Enter the aerodrome elevation and temperature to display a graphical representation including:
• Glide path to the runway
• Corrected MSA
• Corrected MDA
• Corrected GPA
• Corrected custom altitude
Move the yellow marker along the glide path to display corrected altitudes and their corresponding distances from the runway threshold or a DME station.
DISTANCE / ALTITUDE TABLE
Calculate a table of distances and corresponding corrected altitudes, similar to the distance/altitude tables found on instrument approach charts, but with cold-temperature-corrected altitudes.
Choose between an approach based on distance to threshold (GPS) or on a defined DME station.
METAR RWY REPORT DECODER
The app also includes a decoder for METAR RWY reports.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
• Built-in handbook
• Dark Mode for night operations

iPadOS 26/27 UI adaptations
• The user interface has been adapted to support continuous horizontal and vertical window resizing introduced with iPadOS 26. Views are no longer displayed at a fixed scale and now adapt to the available window size.
• Several navigation and utility buttons, including Info and Dark Mode, have been moved into a new menu.
• The tab bar has been removed. Handbook, Braking Coefficient, and Cold Temperature Correction are now accessible through the menu.
• Various minor UI improvements and bug fixes.
