hy
I have a question relating to that topic!
The Problem:
The Rate of climb is the vertical component of the aircraft`s velocity and depends on the aircraft`s velocity and the climb angle,
I don`t understand why the rate of climb is independent of the wind speed.
A headwind for instance will give a steeper climb angle(relative to the ground), and a tailwind a flatter climb angle and thus it should influence the rate of climb. But obviously it doesn`t.
Can anyone clear this up, it would be much appreciated,
