From: Hampshire physically; Perthshire and Pembrokeshire mentally.
In my company we use 20" for the first 500ft and 2" per 100ft above that. Thus for a circling height of 1000ft downwind timing would be 30" in still air from abeam the TDZ. Wind correction is 1" per 2kts head/tailwind - usually tail - that's why you are circling!.

Does that help?
