Unhappy

I couldn't find an icon for groveling, so I won't use one.
I have finally gotten answers for my queries about the temperature compensation on glass cockpit airplanes, and it was not what I expected. The compensation is in fact designed to ensure that the indication is correct for the actual OAT, thus the indication is, as so many of you insisted, NOT corrected for variations from ISA.
I WAS WRONG!!
Oh well, I learned something, even if you smarter operators did not need to. Maybe next time......
