One night in the late 1980's in a previous life, I was in an a Super Puma just approaching the coast at Aberdeen, doing around 135kt IAS when there was a slightly worried comment from an S61 ahead. The reason was that his normal cruise was 110kt and for a minute or so his groundspeed had ground down to zero.
