Hi All,

I‌m quite new to SkyDeamon i was hoping somebody could explain this to me.

I‌n the flight details window i have set a speed of 120kt TAS‌‌. However in my PLOG the TAS varies?

I‌ understand why the GS varies but why is the TAS changing?

H‌opefully somebody can shed some light on this?‌‌ And tell me how i can manually set the TAS for the leg?

T‌hanks in advance

M‌att‌

I'm not sure we want to turn off the features but it would be nice to see how the TAS and other PLOG values are calculated.
This would help understand that the wizzy wheel is "close".

Would it be possible to add a tool tip or dialog to show how the numbers have been derived?

I too have been using SkyDemon to help validate the CRP-8 logic as it is confusing and has multiple ways of being used.

Thanks
