WhizWheel

       iOS iPhone

WhizWheel is a simple iPhone application for pilots that provides a faster alternative to the primary navigation calculations generally performed with a circular slide rule (such as the CRP-1). Namely the calculation of track, ground speed and flight time for a given air speed and heading, given the current wind speed and direction.

As well as calculating the wind effect for a single point, the application can help with ad-hoc navigation (such as diversions) by generating a textual "wind rose" that shows the effect of wind in all directions; at either 30 or 45 degree intervals.

The source code for WhizWheel is available under the GNU General Public License (version 2) and can be downloaded from the project website.

What's new

Fixes a problem introduced in the previous version that increased the minimum support iOS version to 4.3. This release returns the minimum version to 4.2 and so restores support for iPhone 3G devices.
