Wind triangle and density altitude
The existing E6B visualization combines wind correction geometry with the atmospheric density-altitude comparison.
Hotter-than-ISA air raises the effective altitude
The quick E6B approximation uses ISA temperature at pressure altitude and adds about 120 ft for each degree Celsius above standard.
