Heading—required entry for winds aloft calculation.
Use the heading from the aircraft’s heading indicator
or directional gyro.
True Airspeed—(calculated or user-entered figure)
required entry for winds aloft calculations.
Baro Pressure
—required entry for density altitude/
true airspeed calculation. Use current altimeter setting
(barometric pressure).
Total Air Temperature
—required entry for
density altitude/true airspeed calculation. Total Air
Temperature (TAT) is the temperature of the air
including the heating effect caused by speed. Use
the temperature reading on a standard outside air
temperature gauge found on most piston aircraft.
Wind From—(calculated figure) determined from
