It will expand into five TI-BASIC program files: -E86B -WTBAL -AIR -WIND -XWIND E86B is the main prgram file; it calls the other four programs for weight and balance, atmospheric (incl. density altitude, relative humidity, and cumulus cloud bases), wind triangle, and landing crosswind calculations. Operation is straightforward; cursor keys select menu items from the E86-B screen. ****************************** Files included in this package ****************************** readme.txt.......This file gpl.txt..........Terms under which this software is licensed e86b.82g.........The group of executable programs. This is transferred to your calculator. ********** Change log ********** TI-82 revisions: 1.0.2.82 Reverse WCA bug and a few display bugs fixed.
