Re: Crosswind application(s)
The simple answer to your question of clock/crosswind.
Up to 15 degrees off runway heading - 1/4 windspeed = crosswind component
Up to 30 degrees off runway heading - 1/2 windspeed = crosswind component
Up to 45 degrees off runway heading - 3/4 windspeed = crosswind component
60 degrees + off runway heading = full windspeed as crosswind component.
