The clock on your aircraft runs slower as you accelerate, due to relativistic
effects. But then it also runs faster as you climb, again due to relativistic
effects. Do you take these effects into account in your on-board
calculations?


Sure I do. I have to since I'm close to a Lightspeed in my C150.
