Shame it's gone.
Would have liked to read it through again.
Was there a "right answer"?
I remember the old CAA flight tests saying that the aeroplane should face cross wind for engine run up unless the wind strength made parking X wind hazardous ( in which case run up should be into wind).
Can't say anyone ever explained why.
It was just one of those things......
