## Description

This app solves a wind triangle by allowing you entering four values out of six (three speeds and three angles) and calculating the remaining two. It then explains step by step how you get a solution using an animated flight computer showing how to perform each step: the animation rotates the disk, slides it and add marks. It also shows which of the given values to use for each step towards the solution. <br><br>It also contains an example generator for the 15 different cases of 4 given values with 2 to calculate. Occasionally it also produces &quot;impossible&quot; values, such as triangles degenerated to a single line or data for which it is not possible to construct a wind triangle. This is deliberate to let a (student) pilot think about the data entered and find good data starting from there.<br><br>For each set of good data, it draws a wind triangle, giving you an insight in how to navigate. It illustrates this by showing a little plane flying along a course while compensating for the wind using a correct heading.<br><br>The conversions show you different units in SI and Imperial dimensions, while the calculators help you find cross wind components or help you preparing your flight.<br> <br>This app runs on Android devices and preferably on tablets. On devices with smaller screens, you may need to zoom.<br><br>Features<br>- Solves any kind of wind triangle problem and explains how to find those results on a flight computer.<br>- Contains an accurate visualization of a flight computer and animates the different steps towards a solution.<br>- Generates examples for 15 different cases of four given values and two results to obtain. Draws the wind triangle complying with the given data.<br>- Enter data using the keyboard or by pressing buttons to increase of decrease values.<br>- Contains a small animation showing why you need a wind triangle to navigate.<br>- Offers conversions for fuel, speed, climb rate, altitude, distance, mass and temperature.<br>- A small calculator helps you determining e.g. EET and another calculates the cross wind, head wind and tail wind.<br>- An explain tab gives you a short explanation of this app.<br>- Adapts its user interface when you rotate your tablet or phone. Zoom (two fingers gesture) and pan (one finger gesture) to ease accessing the data entry controls or to enlarge a part of the screen.<br>- Enter data using the (virtual) keyboard or by tapping buttons to increase of decrease values.<br>- Uses the available virtual keyboard and makes sure the keyboard does not cover the data entry field. However, when using a GBoard keyboard, use its floating property to move the keyboard freely over the screen.<br>- Select one of the possible languages: English (Default), French, German, Spanish and Dutch.<br>- Supports light and dark screen themes.
