Read my post again. I did not say it was "The other way round" I said "I remember it the other way round" I am not stupid enough to believe that the two statements do not amount to the same thing.
If this, like a lot of other threads lately is going to develop into a bloody nitpicking grammar lesson then get on with it!!
You may also like to re-read the original question. Which amounts to: Ground speed is known, how do you look up or calculate wind speed at 2000/3000ft?
