Crosswind Calculator
Calculate crosswind and headwind components for any runway and wind condition. Visualize wind vectors, compare multiple runways at once, and check against your personal minimums.
Whether you're planning a flight or studying for your PPL, understanding crosswind components is essential. This calculator gives you instant answers with a clear visual breakdown — and it's useful long after you pass your exam.
- Visual wind component diagram
- Multiple runway comparison
- Gust factor analysis
- Personal minimums checking
- Works on any device
METAR/TAF Decoder
Paste any raw METAR or TAF report and get a complete plain-language translation. See flight categories, weather alerts, and timeline analysis at a glance.
Reading raw METARs and TAFs is a skill every pilot needs — and one that's tested on the written exam. Use this decoder to practice reading weather reports and to quickly check conditions at any airport.
- Plain-language weather translation
- Flight category color coding (VFR, MVFR, IFR, LIFR)
- Visual weather depiction
- TAF timeline analysis
- Severe weather alerts
Aviation Unit Converter
Convert between all the units pilots encounter daily — distance, speed, pressure, temperature, altitude, volume, weight, and time. Built specifically for aviation with the conversions you actually need.
Nautical miles to statute miles. Millibars to inches of mercury. Celsius to Fahrenheit. If you've ever fumbled a conversion during flight planning or on a practice exam, this tool solves that instantly.
- 8 conversion categories
- Aviation-specific calculations
- Batch conversions for efficiency
- Quick reference guide included
Weight & Balance Calculator
Calculate aircraft weight and balance with CG envelope visualization. Add stations, adjust fuel loads, and verify your center of gravity is within limits — all with a clear visual display.
Weight and balance is tested on every FAA written exam and is critical for safe flight operations. This tool lets you practice CG calculations and verify your work with an interactive envelope chart.
- Interactive CG envelope chart
- Multiple station inputs
- Fuel weight calculations
- Visual CG limit checking
- Works on any device
