Altitude Correction for Pressure Altitude
Enter the altimeter setting or altitude correction
Pressure Altitude
Enter any two fields (i.e. Altitude, Altimeter Setting or Pressure Altitude) then press "Eval" on any remaining field for that field's result QNH is a term not commonly used in the United States but used in many other countries. It is the altimeter setting setting such that the altimeter reads altitude above mean sea level at the airport level. In the U.S. this is referred to as the altimeter setting and is usually given by ATC (Air Traffic Control) or the airport ATIS (Airport Terminal Information Service) among other sources. Note that it does not matter the order that you enter the rows. The remaining row (field) will be calculated based on the values of the other two rows when the Eval button of that row is pressed.

Density Altitude
Enter any two fields (i.e. Pressure Altitude, Temperature or Density Altitude) then press "Eval" on any remaining field for that field's result Note that it does not matter the order that you enter the rows. The remaining row (field) will be calculated based on the values of the other two rows when the Eval button of that row is pressed.

True Altitude
Enter any four fields then press "Eval" on any remaining field for that field's result. True Altitude computations are inherently imprecise, please be cautious, particularly when extrapolating beyond typical conditions.
Note 1: If you don't have the Station Altitude set it to zero Note 2: It does not matter the order that you enter the rows. The remaining row (field) will be calculated based on the values of the other rows when the Eval button of that row is pressed.
True Airspeed
or
Enter any four fields on the upper portion orthree fields on the lower portion then press "Eval" on that portion for any remaining field for that field's result. True Airspeed computations are somewhat imprecise, please be cautious, particularly when extrapolating beyond typical conditions. When calculating the Recovery Coefficient there is a vary narrow range of solutions. The model used takes into consideration compressibility and may be used for speeds beyond Mach 1. Note 1: If you don't know the recovery coefficient set it to 1.0. Note 2: It does not matter the order that you enter the rows. The remaining row (field) will be calculated based on the values of the other rows when the Eval button of that row is pressed.
Temperature Rise
Enter any two fields then press "Eval" on any remaining field for that field's result. When calculating the Recovery Coefficient there is a vary narrow range of solutions. The model used takes into consideration compressibility and may be used for speeds beyond Mach 1. To calculate True Air Temperature (Tt) use Tt=Tc-ΔT. Where Tc is the Calibrated Air Temperature and ΔT is the Temperature Rise. Note 1: If you don't know the recovery coefficient set it to 1.0. Note 2: It does not matter the order that you enter the rows. The remaining row (field) will be calculated based on the values of the other two rows when the Eval button of that row is pressed.
Mach Number
Enter any two fields on the upper portion orthree fields on the lower portion then press "Eval" on that portion for any remaining field for that field's result. Note 1: If you don't know the recovery coefficient set it to 1.0. Note 2: It does not matter the order that you enter the rows. The remaining row (field) will be calculated based on the values of the other rows when the Eval button of that row is pressed.
Equivalent Airspeed
Enter any three fields then press "Eval" on any remaining field for that field's result Note 2: It does not matter the order that you enter the rows. The remaining row (field) will be calculated based on the values of the other rows when the Eval button of that row is pressed.
