Thanks for the replies . Yes so I sat down today and done some calculations over and over on the whizz wheel, I finally understand, as they say the penny just dropped. I was way overthinking it and just lack of use where I lost my confidence with it. I sat all exams in February and just totally forgot it.

An instructor today went way over the top on the wind side of the wheel, completely exploded my mind and confused the hell out of me. So now I’m trying to figure this out since today lol.
May someone help maybe on a quick step by step. I watched videos but it wasn’t working for me. For G/S and heading.

Once i I have my wind and speed and TAS and track.
1. Apply wind direction on index.
2. Put in the TAS.
3. Dot down, is wind speed ?
4. From here I got confused, maybe above is wrong too.
