coolAltitude vs Cold WXR Altitude Correction

coolAltitude brings cold-temperature altitude corrections, approach profiles and de-icing tools into one focused workspace for pilots. ALTITUDE CORRECTIONS Enter the temperature and approach data, compare entered and corrected altitudes, and see the result in a clear approach profile. Select the correction method and rounding option for your workflow. DME shift helps put distance references in context. APPROACH SETUP Use the FMS-style interface to work with airport, runway and approach data. A structured display and dedicated keys keep the setup readable alongside the profile. DE-ICING AND HOLDOVER TIME Select the applicable conditions, fluid type and concentration. Review the available holdover guidance and keep the countdown visible during your workflow. WEATHER AND RUNWAY CONTEXT Consult METAR, TAF and runway-condition information alongside your calculations. Online information depends on the availability of the connected services. READABLE IN LIGHT AND DARK Clear colour roles distinguish inputs, corrected values and shifted values. Light and Dark appearances support different lighting conditions, with restrained surfaces and readable controls. Some features require an in-app subscription. Check the in-app purchase screen for the features included, subscription terms and current pricing. Use current operational information and the procedures applicable to your aircraft and operation when assessing results.

Cold Weather Altitude Correction is a tool for pilots to calculate and visualize cold temperature altitude corrections for instrument approaches. Calculations are based on ICAO PANS-OPS Doc 8168. The app uses a more accurate calculation method than the commonly used 4% correction, which becomes increasingly inaccurate at temperatures below -15°C. Unlike conventional tools that simply provide a list of temperature-corrected altitudes, Cold Weather Altitude Correction visualizes the corrections in the context of an actual approach. GRAPHICAL APPROACH VIEW Enter the aerodrome elevation and temperature to display a graphical representation including: • Glide path to the runway • Corrected MSA • Corrected MDA • Corrected GPA • Corrected custom altitude Move the yellow marker along the glide path to display corrected altitudes and their corresponding distances from the runway threshold or a DME station. DISTANCE / ALTITUDE TABLE Calculate a table of distances and corresponding corrected altitudes, similar to the distance/altitude tables found on instrument approach charts, but with cold-temperature-corrected altitudes. Choose between an approach based on distance to threshold (GPS) or on a defined DME station. METAR RWY REPORT DECODER The app also includes a decoder for METAR RWY reports. ADDITIONAL FEATURES • Built-in handbook • Dark Mode for night operations
