The E6B Calculator calculates Density Altitude, True Airspeed, Tail Wind, Wind From,
and Wind Speed, based on information you enter.

Calculating true airspeed and density altitude:
1) From the 'Home' Screen, touch Tools > E6B Calc, enter the altitude
shown on the altimeter into the 'Indicated Altitude' field.
2) Repeat for 'Calibrated Airspeed', 'Baro Pressure', and 'Total Air
Temperature' fields. (For Calibrated Airspeed, use the speed shown on
the airspeed indicator. Use the current altimeter setting for Baro Pressure.
Total Air Temperature is the temperature of the outside air including the
heating effect caused by speed. For most aircraft, this is the temperature
reading on a standard outside air temperature gauge.) The calculated
