Remarks

ADS-B allows velocity and heading to be specified in one of two ways. One is an explicit declaration of the heading as a bearing and a velocity. The other is declared as two speeds, one in the east-west direction and the other in the north-south direction, from which the bearing and actual speed can be calculated using trigonometry. This class declares the parameters transmitted for the latter and also carries the code to derive the bearing and speed.
