Enter the temperature in degrees Celsius, and instantly the Fahrenheit conversion is displayed, as well as the chill factor in °C and °F using the NWS Wind Chill index used by the U.S. and Canada.  Here, you can set your display speed units (kts, mph, kph) and pressure units(inHg, hPa, mb) as well as the threshold points where the wind results turn amber (caution zone) and red (aircraft limits).  The headwind (tailwind) and crosswind components are based on the runway, and reported wind direction and speed.  If the airport has parallel runways, using the runway number closest to the actual magnetic heading of the runway gives the most accurate results.  Density altitude is diaplayed for assumed dry air, and also moist air (based upon the temp/dewpoint spread entered in the temperature page.  Crosswind and tailwind components are rounded up, while the headwind component is rounded down, making sure that all results depict the worst case.  Designed by an airline pilot, Spin-a-Wind calculates wind components, temperatures, altitudes and airspeeds.  Relative Humidity and Heat Stress Index are calculated using the entered Dewpoint Temperature.  (note: the NWS Wind Chill index is not valid for greater than 50°F or less than 3 mph of wind.  The third item deals with altitudes, metric, pressure altitude and density altitude.  The second item on the tab bar links you to a page with temperature conversions.  Results of calculations are displayed instantly when the last reel stops.  The fifth item on the tab bar moves the view to the settings page.  To instantly change to the opposite (reciprocal) runway, tap the runway number at the far end.  It uses equations for TAS, mach, and speed of sound.  The fourth item is the Airspeed Calculator.  The equations used will be accurate even for the higher speeds of jet aircraft.  The app was designed for one handed use, and ease of operation.  The result is also displayed graphically.  Spinning reels are used to make your selections.  No keyboard is necessary.
