Description:
NAVCALC is a computer program written to assist the VFR aircraft
pilot in flight planning. It runs under Microsoft Windows
version 3.0 or later, and utilizes a wide range of
convenient Windows features. It is almost entirely mouse

log form. NAVCALC offers the following facilities:-

* convenient mouse driven entry of windspeed, wind
direction, true airspeed, fuel consumption rate and
magnetic variation

* convenient mouse driven entry of track and distance for
up to twenty individual flight legs

* immediate, simultaneous calculation of magnetic
heading, ground speed, time and fuel consumption for each
leg

* automatic on-screen graphical plot of track lines;
watch your route build as you enter details

* compilation of complete on-screen summary of your
route, including total time, distance and fuel

* file-save facility to allow previous trips to be
recalled and updated for new in-flight conditions

* hard-copy printed output of completed flight log form
for use in the cockpit

* weight, volume, speed, temperature and distance
conversions

* calculation of true altitude, density altitude and true
airspeed
