Tools For Pilots vs Turbulence Meter

Tools For Pilots is a small collection of tools. It is designed as an universal app with different iPhone and iPad interfaces. On the iPad landscape and portrait orientation are supported in split views. Wind Components - are displayed in a nice graphical layout - touch the runway designator to change the runway direction - touch the wind arrow to change the wind - main wind and gusts are shown absolute, as head/tail wind and as cross wind by wind arrows relativ to the runway RWY Report Decoding - the code is analyzed while typing, the keyboard will only allow exisiting codes - you can switch to Russian friction coefficients by touching the flag Cold Temperature Altitude Correction - save multiple pages for reusing - share your pages via airdrop, e-mail or saved files Climb Gradients - enter gradient, angle or feet per nm - create a list with distance and altitude and/or - create a list with groundspeed and vertical speed ICAO Delay Codes - the standard ICAO Delay Codes Airport Time Zones - coordinates, time zone, daylight saving time, day length, sunset and sunrise are shown - a map with the location of the airport can be displayed - time zone, sunrise and sunset are calculated by the app for any date - calculation is done off-line using a build-in database Metar and TAF Reports - can be requested for an editable airport list - 3 letter IATA or 4 letter ICAO code - requires online connection - time zone, sunrise and sunset are calculated by the app

Application calculates total gload on pitch roll and yaw axis. By using this this total load factor you can see which turbulence type you are experiencing. Turbulence types are reported as either LIGHT, MODERATE or SEVERE. G-Load bigger than 1.1g *NO TURBULENCE G-Load bigger than 1.1g & G-Load smaller than 1.3g *LIGHT TURBULENCE G-Load bigger than 1.3g & G-Load smaller than 1.5 g *MODERATE TURBULENCE G-Load bigger than 1.5g *SEVERE TURBULENCE
