Group: Forum Members Posts: 40, Visits: 157	Hi! I'm trying to print out the pilot log, but I've noticed that it populates TIME column only if I check the 'Perform wind calculations' box. How can I have the TIME column with time not considering wind? Thank in advance

Group: Forum Members Posts: 388, Visits: 8.3K	... why is there a GS calculated? it should be same as IAS No. When zero wind GS is not the same as IAS, It's the same as TAS which will change with pressure altitude and temperature for a given IAS. Edited 3/18/2014 8:38:01 AM by srayne
