      I very much appreciate the ability to display airports and the METAR information.

      The runway information ("Rwys, info") tab is also helpful, but it would be EVEN BETTER if you could calculate and display approximate crosswind / headwind components for the runway options.

      All the information needed for the calculation is already available, with the wind direction (true heading) and intensity in the METAR, and the runway direction (approximate magnetic heading and magnetic declination --> calculate true heading).

      Thank you for considering!
