windshear

IN one of the earlier posts (I think completely deck made mention of this report, though I am not attacking completely deck at all)a mention of a "GAIN OF 5-20KNOTS"

AS we all know there are increasing performance wind shear and decreasing performance wind shear. There are also incorrect reports on windshear.

I would like to know if it was a loss of 5 to 20 knots of IAS or a GAIN of 5 to 20 knots. Later on during the go around a pilot indicates a loss of 33 knots.

EARLY reports always seem to make us ask even more questions.
