Principally what John has said is correct, however in Airbus FBW gust is automatically taken care of by ground speed mini so pilot doesn't add any correction for that. For 14kt headwind Vapp should be Vls+5. Why should there be no addition? 1/3rd has two limits zero in case of nil or tail wind and max 15kts.
