Navigation & Flight Planning
Wind Correction Angle
Essential for aviation students and flight schools. Determine your Wind Correction Angle (WCA) and Ground Speed to maintain your flight planned track, compensating for wind speed direction and velocity.

Note: Whether you converge and diverge from your flight planned track depends heavily on accurately calculating your WCA. This tool assumes standard MSL and ISA conditions for ground speed air speed calibrated speed correlations.
