Where to get True Heading

[WDD]

I'm doing some flight planning by hand, and while I can get magnetic heading from F Flight, I can't seem to get it to give me True.

What app / web site can provide True?

Just apply the local magnetic variation.

With charts, you measured True Course from the chart, applied the magnetic variation to get Magnetic Course, then applied wind correction to get Magnetic heading.

If you must use an app, Garmin Pilot will give you true heading.

Yep - its what I'm doing. I'm using the Mag Variation from the sectional chart on F Flight and hand calculating back what True is. I just want to double check it with a source that True to begin with. (Yeah, I'm like that LOL)
