Both Global and Challengers (300 and 605) have temp compensation built in to the software. Enter the data, the altitudes show as "inverse video", if the pilot's accept the temp comps, all the VNAV will be based on compensated altitudes.

Here's on I knew but never thought of--temp comp'ing the accel altitude on departure in the OEI case.

PS Another great Canadian feature--cockpit oiling of the engines and APU. No mucking with ladders on cold, icy ramps. Excellent safety idea!
