Tail wind higher than total wind


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

I just found that on two different OFPs done during the last ATW in 80 days. It is not much a problem as it does not affect the performance but a bit strange to have a wind component stronger than the wind. May be due to a sine/cosine calculation?

Hello Philippe,

 

Here are the two FPLs. The weather was PFPX to plan and AS16 in flight which were nealy the same as you can see from my notes.

I would not consider this as an issue but just noted as a bit strange. Interesting point was on these FPLs the wind was exactly on the axis of the aircraft which does not happen every flight, it is why In thought it could be from a calculation method.

 

Regards,
