It is good information, but just that more info not a decision-making tool. However, my experience is that more often than not, pretty good information. In the C-5, the jumpseater would watch the winds on final and call-out the drift , which made hand-flown ILSs easier. On a PAR, it could be real handy for the controller, esp in Germany with a front approaching at the end of 24-hour duty day.
