Just a thought.
The 4 degree glideslope is relative to the ship and is determined by the Fresnel lens landing system. However, if the ship is making its own wind, the Fresnel lens system is moving through space also.

I think I had better add the constraint that the ship is making its own wind of 27 knots.
That will tweak the decimal points a bit.
