xWind

xWind is an easy to use tool to assist pilots in evaluating wind conditions with respect to head, cross and tailwind limitations.

Once setup, the xWind app provides all information in one single screen, requiring minimal user interaction during high workload phases of flight, displaying:

- Reference wind direction and speed
- Runway course
- Cross and head or tailwind components
- Currently applied wind limits
- 'Forbidden' wind angles based on the current wind speed
- Maximum wind speed table based on current wind limits
​
Reference wind, runway course, as well as wind limits, can all be adjusted on the main screen by either dragging the wind arrow, course rose or wind limit lines.

A settings button at the bottom presents a popup screen where default wind limit values can be entered.

xWinds supports darkmode.
