Latest reviews of Flight Winds app for iPhone and iPad
An example of what an app should be!
This is one of those apps that is just perfect at doing what it does. I find it invaluable to make informed decisions when flying into both my home and other airports. The perfection lies in the simplicity and ease of use. It is not cluttered and the wind components are easily understood. So kudos to the developers for providing something to use realtime in the cockpit.

Simple and very useful app! Thank you
Auto Rotate would be a big improvement
I definitely like this free app. The 1 big improvement would be to add auto rotation from portrait to landscape mode. In the cockpit I mount my iPad in landscape mode which makes using this app a little bit of a pain. Otherwise, its very helpful and has attractive graphics.
