## What is Active Runway?

When your workload is high, calculating the best runway for landing can be difficult. Active Runway makes it quick and simple.
Built for pilots who need fast runway decisions in the cockpit, Active Runway is designed to be simple to use, easy to read, and fully functional without cell service.
Just move the sliders to the available runways and current wind direction, then tap Calculate. Active Runway will display the runway with the least crosswind — that's it.
New: Load any airport to pull current and forecasted weather, and Active Runway will automatically calculate the preferred runway for you.
I hope you find this app helpful in the cockpit. Comments and suggestions are always welcome.

### 1/5 — Does not open

*2020-11-02*

As soon as it boots it crashes.

**Developer response:** It needs to be updated to be compatible with the latest OS. I will pull it from the App Store until it is ready. Sorry for the inconvenience.
