Wind triangle calculation
The page called FLIGHT NAVIGATOR is to help perform wind triangle calculations. It features the three following components for this purpose:
A disk - speed vectors for the aircraft and the wind can be drawn on the surface with a soft pencil. The vectors can be set at different angles by means of the graduations on the graduations on the edge of the disk.
A slide chart with coordinates for wind speed, circular lines for TAS of the aircraft and straight lines for the angle of drift. The LOW SPEED side is laid out for low speeds, the HIGH SPEED side for high speeds.
A wind cursor with indicator to set the wind direction and scales that apply to both speed ranges on the chart board.
