Now, determining the best runway to land on is achieved in just a few seconds! Selecting the best runway and visualizing the airport layout and crosswind has never been easier.
Runway Selector Features:
- Crosswind component chart
- Preset runway markings and orientation
- Prevailing wind indicator
Runway Selection
Simply set your runways prior to take off, then while in flight adjust the wind
arrow to match the wind direction as reported by a weather reporting agency
(like AWOS or ATIS). The runway nearest to the point of the 'wind arrow' is the
most favorable runway. Runway Selector is a quick easy visual reference! As an
added bonus, the tool can also be used to confirm your take-off runway as well.
Crosswind Component
A cross wind component chart comes standard right on the back of the tool. Once
wind information is obtained, determine the degrees from the 'Cross Wind
Component indicator' line versus the desired runway alignment. Turn the tool
over for a quick and easy cross-wind component chart.
Airport Orientation
Runway Selector allows you to preset runway orientation for the destination
airport prior to takeoff. Referencing the tool in flight provides a quick, easy
visual picture of how the runways will look as you approach the airport.
Together, all the features of Runway Selector serve to provide multiple quick
references for any pilot. The tool is also an excellent tool for instructors to
use in teaching a new student pilot in a myriad of situations and teaching
situations.
Prevailing Winds
The Runway Selector provides a visual indication of the prevailing winds in
reference to the desired runway. Additionally, the wind arrow can be used in
flight to monitor winds and help in navigation relating to wind correction.

Review:
**NOTE** when you get it, the two runways will be aligned with one-another, you need to slide the disks apart - otherwise it appears like it only has one runway.
I don't know why anyone would not give this 5 stars - what a clever little tool! Easy to use, well-constructed and durable. I use it as a teaching aid for student pilots so that they can better visualize how to do the same thing using the VOR compass ring (mental math has no place in the cockpit =)
Must have for any CFI who wants to help students visualize how to figure out which runway to land on.

Great little tool
- By mark from Bozeman MT USA on Thursday, June 03, 2021
- Pros: Very easy to use
- Review: A perfect tool to carry with you when listening to ATIS or AWOS on a flight to determine (with little effort) the runway to land on! Tired of having to hear the wind speed and direction and then try (in my head) to determine the optimal runway to land on.

A great tool
- By A Customer from Mystic CT USA on Wednesday, November 21, 2018
- Pros: Works perfectly, as expected
- Review: Very helpful to double check the proper runway selection based on wind direction.

I knew I'd love it from the moment I saw it.
- By A Customer from Acton MA USA on Wednesday, March 01, 2017
- Pros: User friendly, commonsensical approach.
- Review: I wish I had this tool during my Pilot training, it would have save me a lot of headaches and a lot of money. Its simple to use, I was able to accurately land my airplane on the right runway multiple times, without issues. Note, that prior preparation and practice is part of a safe landing, so don't wait to the last minute to learn to use it. Level of difficulty; medium for untrained pilots, easy for trained pilots.

A Long Awaited Resource
- By Daniel from Rochester NY USA on Thursday, June 04, 2015
- Pros: Compact, easy to use
- Review: I've been waiting for something to help me orient myself to unfamiliar airports while in flight. Trying to figure what runway to use given crosswinds used to drive me crazy. In addition, I was not always certain how the runway configuration would present itself given my heading to the airport. This little tool does it all. It is so compact, it fits in my tri fold lap organizer
