About RwyXwind
This app provides pilots, other aviation professionals as well as hobbyists with the actual headwind or tailwind and crosswind components on the airport and runway of their choice. All you need to provide is the three letter IATA code of the airport and the desired runway heading. The wind is provided automatically through an external API.
As an example you can get the actual wind components for San Fransisco International Airport (SFO), Runway 28.
Features include:
- Get the actual weather headwind or tailwind and crosswind for the airport and runway of your choice
- Keep a list with your favourite airports and runways for quick access to their wind data
- Set your aircraft wind limits and get visual indications when the actual wind exceeds them
