VRS - pah!

Quite right Jim. RDVT wind at 3:01 and 3:08.
ttb: VRS requires 2 factors:
1 Induced flow
and
2 Opposing flow - (condition 2 is the reason 3kts descent and 30kts forward is mentioned - 6 degrees is NOWHERE near VRS - but at less than IAS30kts pitot is unreliable and 30kts easily lost if unaware or gusts/sheer. "caught one"?)
