Components
I'd like to ask a further question, if I may...
A couple of replies to the original post made mention of tail wind and crosswind components. Am I right in assuming that these are vector components of the total wind speed?
So if we had wind 04kts at 045, the tail wind component would be 02kts and the crosswind component would be 02kts? Or is my maths all screwed up??
Thanks
