Flight Winds +4

Pretty good

Like to see clearer, larger display. Still no X or 11 support. Not an active developer.

Also, It kills audio when launched. No clue why. Sloppy coding?

Too limiting and inaccurate

Winds are generally given in 10 degree increments. The app clicks off one degree at a time. The default should be 10 degrees (with option to tighten it to 5 or 1 degree increments).

When I put in runway 26 and winds of 260 at 20 knots, the app calculated both a headwind and a tailwind component,With the tail and component exceeding my 10 knot limitation. This is not possible. Also, some limitations (like tailwind)Including gust limitation. I can see no way to input a guest in the app.

Resposta do desenvolvedor ,

I'm sorry to hear that the app didn't live up to your expectations.

Regarding the first point, the app already allows you to increment by 10º. to accomplish this, long-press the +/- buttons.

As for the second point, please take a second look at the app's user interface. The display simultaneously shows wind components for both runway directions, in this case, 26 and 08.

So, in the described scenario, the app doesn't indicate that you've exceeded both tailwind and headwind limits for runway 26 simultaneously, as stated in the review.

Instead, it shows that runway 26 headwind limit and runway 08 tailwind limit have been exceeded. Not the headwind and tailwind limits for the same runway direction.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you like to explore this further.

Safe flying

Simple and easy to use.

I’ve been using this app for several years with no problems. Very intuitive . I frequently use it in China, where wind speeds are reported in MPS. I wish it had a provision for converting meters per second to knots.
