Gust vs Wind Shear
Hi,
I am trying to understand the difference between gust and wind shear.
According to my knowledge wind shear is a difference in wind speed and direction over a relatively short distance in the atmosphere.
Gust is defined (on the internet) as a sudden increase in speed of the wind.
I can image that the causes, the amplitude and the effect on the aircraft can be different. But I haven't found any resource which explicitly points out the differences.
Any help or pointers to resources is appreciated.
Thanks!
