Solves and animates how to calculate the missing values of a wind triangle. This is a free of charge ap containing a small subset of the much richer Animated Flight Computer app.
A wind triangle consists of three speeds and three angles. This app allows you entering four of those six values to calculate the remaining two. It then explains how you get these results with an E6B flight computer, by animating it. It rotates the disk, slides it and add marks. It also shows what value to use for each step towards the solution.
Instead of entering data, the app contains a "-" and "+" button for each value. Tap them to decrease/increase a value or keep your finger on them to keep decreasing/increasing a value.
