Dank runway embarkation meander
Scenario: The wind is 90 degrees off runway heading for take off. The pilot is passed a wind reading substantially less than the actual wind value. The runway is wet. The pilot completes a take off, does not abort.
Question1. Would a reasonably capable pilot with appropriate flight control inputs for cross wind technique find himself drifting upwind or downwind on the takeoff roll. Referring to the displacement from the centreline, not the aircraft's heading.
Question2. Would the depth of water affect the direction of the drift?
Consider that the aircraft may weathercock and/or experience downwind drift depending on the runway friction.
And no, I'm not looking for recommendations to follow SOP's, decline takeoff, or abort. All of these of course could go without saying. In this (perhaps) hypothetical situation, the aircraft does not depart the side of the runway, but continues the take off and gets airborne.
I would be interested in hearing opinions on the answers to Ques 1 and Ques 2.
