Hi everyone.
I hope this question makes sense. I regularly watch aviation flightdeck videos. I have noticed on some flights when on final and approaching the rwy threshold, one of the pilots (I think PNF) calls out figures such as "+5, +3, +4" and so on. I'm not sure what that means.
My guesses are either something to do with wind (or crosswind component), or something to do with the VSI, or something to do with trim settings!
Can anyone help?
Many thanks in advance
