Aviation Wind Components Calculator
x402
Aviation Wind Components Calculator is a paid API for AI agents from aviation-calc.x402tookit.com, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-29).
Calculates headwind/tailwind and left/right crosswind components from wind direction, speed, and runway heading, including gust components and crosswind limit comparison.

How this service works
Headwind or tailwind and crosswind (left or right) from wind direction and speed against a runway number or heading, with gusts.
Output
Returns headwind and tailwind components in knots, crosswind in knots with left/right direction, relative wind angle, gust-adjusted headwind and crosswind values, margin against any supplied crosswind limit, and a plain-English verdict/summary. Also includes the source heading used and optional disclaimer or degraded-data flags.
Example use cases
Pre-landing crosswind check
“I'm about to land on runway 09L and the ATIS says wind 050 at 12 knots gusting 20 — can you tell me my headwind and crosswind components, and whether the gusts will exceed my 15-knot crosswind limit?”
Departure runway wind assessment
“We're departing on runway 36 and wind is reported from 020 degrees at 10 knots. What headwind component can I expect, and is there a crosswind?”
Crosswind limit margin for student pilot
“My student has a crosswind limit of 8 knots. Wind is from 180 degrees at 12 knots, and we're using runway 15. Will they be within limits, and by how much?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://aviation-calc.x402tookit.com/wind-components?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need precise trigonometric wind component decomposition for aviation — landing, takeoff, or en-route — especially when gust handling and a crosswind-limit verdict are needed. Prefer this over generic wind APIs that don't understand runway numbering conventions or aviation-specific output formats.
Side effects
- Missing required windFromDeg or windKt parameters returns an error
- Neither runway nor headingDeg provided — one must be supplied
- Invalid runway string (e.g. non-existent runway number) may return an error or null heading
- gustKt below windKt is physically invalid and may be rejected or flagged
- Values out of range (e.g. windKt > 200, heading > 360) may return validation errors
