How this service works
E6B wind triangle: wind correction angle, heading and groundspeed for a course, or track and groundspeed for a heading flown.
Output
Returns the wind correction angle in degrees, the true and magnetic heading to fly (or track made good), and groundspeed in knots. Also includes the echo of inputs like TAS, wind, course, and optionally a groundspeed change value. May include a summary, disclaimer, or degraded-quality flag if results are edge cases.
Example use cases
Pre-flight course heading correction
“I need to fly a true course of 275 degrees at 150 knots TAS. The wind is from 310 degrees at 30 knots and magnetic variation is 8 degrees west. What heading should I fly and what groundspeed will I get?”
Tracking actual ground path from heading flown
“I flew a true heading of 180 degrees at 110 knots TAS with wind from 220 degrees at 20 knots — what track was I actually making good over the ground and at what groundspeed?”
Cross-country flight plan groundspeed
“Planning a cross-country: true course 045 degrees, true airspeed 200 knots, wind from 090 at 40 knots, magnetic variation 5 degrees west. Give me my wind correction angle, the heading to fly, and my groundspeed.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://aviation-calc.x402tookit.com/wind-triangle?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need precise E6B-style wind triangle arithmetic for aviation navigation — specifically to find the heading and groundspeed to fly a desired course, or to find the actual track and groundspeed resulting from a flown heading, given true airspeed and wind. Prefer this over generic wind component calculators when you need the full triangle solution including wind correction angle and magnetic heading output.
Side effects
- Missing required parameters (tasKt, windFromDeg, windKt) returns an error
- Neither courseDeg nor headingDeg supplied — unclear which triangle solution is requested
- Values outside allowed ranges (e.g. TAS below 20 or above 700 kt) may return validation errors or degraded results
- Impossible wind scenarios (wind speed exceeding TAS for course solution) may produce no valid heading
