• Weight and Balance: The options are:<br />

o Bar Display: A unique and information-rich view - the Bar<br />

Display presents the W&B information using bars and warns<br />

pilots of CGs that are close to, our out of, their limits.<br />

o Show Moment: Some POHs show the weight and balance<br />

graphics with reference to moment instead of weight. <strong>WingX</strong><br />

has this capability and it is set using this option.<br />

o Show Graphics: A user may wish to increase the usable<br />

screen area for data input. By unchecking this option, <strong>WingX</strong><br />

will hide the graphics portion of the Weight and Balance envelope thereby significantly<br />

increasing the data entry screen area. This option is particularly useful for users with square<br />

screens such as the 240x240 devices. The summary information and error messages will<br />

continue to be shown.<br />

o Show Summary CG Range: When viewing the Summary Table of the Weight and Balance<br />

calculations, <strong>WingX</strong> will display the allowable CG range at the various phases of the flight.<br />

This is useful information, however the user prefer to hide these range as hiding the ranges will<br />

may the Summary Table more concise and easier to read.<br />

• Route: Allows the user to add or remove columns in the route leg list<br />

on the Route page. When a column name is checked, it is selected to<br />

be displayed. In the example on the right, all columns except ETA will<br />

be displayed.<br />

To show the ETA column, tap on “ETA” – the column “ETA” will<br />

now be displayed when viewing the list of route legs on the Route<br />

page. By hiding columns, more screen space is available to display<br />

other pertinent information about the route legs.<br />

• Chart: The options are:<br />

o Show High Alert Areas: Some airports have define High Alert Areas which are defined by<br />

the FAA as areas where runway incursion may occur or those areas that are confusing”.<br />

o Show Runway Warnings: The SmartTaxi warning are clearly very important during taxi<br />

operation. However, <strong>WingX</strong> does provide the option of disabling the warning system by using<br />

this option.<br />

• E6B: The option is:<br />

o Use GPS: By selecting this option, <strong>WingX</strong> will automatically update the E6B fields where<br />

appropriate based on GPS data (if a GPS is present). This allows the E6B to display real-time<br />

information based on the aircraft’s performance.<br />
