Fig. 10.5 - Wind Calculation page
The EKP-IV computes wind velocity and direction from the information entered above and from
the current Ground Speed,Track and Altitude, which are derived from GPS data. ETE to Waypoint
is also based on GPS Ground Speed and Track. Wind information will be recomputed when the
heading, air speed, air temperature or Altitude values are edited.
Note
The wind calculator does not correct for local barometric pressure, which may not be known accurately enroute.
The values produced by the wind calculator may therefore differ from the true winds by up to 5%.
10.6 FUEL CoNSUMPtIoN
The EKP-IV computes Fuel Consumption for each leg of the active Flight Plan or the fuel used in
flight, based on entries made by the pilot. This is a useful feature for flight planning purposes. Actual
Fuel Consumption will vary based on flight conditions and engine settings.
Fuel can be calculated in pounds, liters or gallons; the units of measure used for the valuesentered
here are selected from Units Setup menu in the System Setup Menu (see Par. 14.5).
