It would be useful if the estimated winds aloft used for the enroute segment calculations were to be included in the Nav Log. The program appears to handle this pretty well as far as groundspeed for a given altitude, but it would be nice to see the actual values used for that segment (True direction and windspeed).

Winds have been added to the navlog; we're considering also adding the net tailwind.

Currently, are the winds shown in the Nav Log magnetic or true?

OK I'll take a shot at this one and answer your question with a private pilot ground school question.

1. ARE winds aloft forecast in relation to TRUE north or in Magnetic north?
