DR/VFR Nav question
Hi all.
How can I apply the max drift number when flying? Also I know about the 'clockface' solutions to work out G/S and drift. However, these seem to be of little use in the air as they use the same predicted W/V as found on the Metform 214 and 215.
Any thoughts about this, how I could use these methods for accurate DR nav when en route, how would I assess the wind accurately in the air? Is it also acceptable to use the wizz wheel in the air?
Any other rules of thumb would be appreciated!
Many thanks,
Tarmach
