Default Inter-thermal Speed To Fly

..02NO

Thanks for the direction to the Remde site ...

"My flight computer (LX7007) includes wind component in STF
calculations."

This is interesting ... it uses wind in the Cruise STF calculation?
Reichmann on page 99 of Cross-Country Soaring (1988) says wind is not
used for this calc ... and, I'm thinking speed rings - which were the
first STF 'computers' - do not have any wind input ... but different
people have given me different answers on this ...

Thanks,

KK
