Gusty conditions
Hi all. Just a quickie. Last time i was flying it was starting to get a bit gusty, my instructor mentioned the practice of increasing approach speed by a factor depending on the difference between the steady wind and the gusts. Does anyone know this? He mentioned it on final with about a minute to touchdown, so it didnt lodge in my head properly. I forgot to ask him about it afterwards.
He said in gustier conditions we would incease approach, by a factor depending on the difference between steady wind and max gusts. Anyone know the specifics?
