Calculate the approximate time and compass heading during the climb
Could anyone guide me to the right direction with what to do with the wind? (no whizz wheel)
Here is the question:
An airplane departs an airport under the following condition:
Airport elevation 1,000 ft Cruise altitude 9,500 ft
Rate of climb 500 ft/min Average true airspeed 135 kts
True course 215 Average wind velocity 290/20 kts
Variation 3 W Deviation -2
Determine the approximate time and compass heading during the climb.
a. 17 minutes, 224
b. 17 minutes, 242
c. 14 minutes, 234
d. 14 minutes, 242
I can only find the time which is 17 minutes: 9500-1000 = 8500/500 = 17 minutes. As for the compass heading: C D M V T
216 -2 218 3W 215
My answer is not one of the given answers so what the heck did I do wrong?
