It absolutely is true. Wind velocity drops dramatically as it approaches
a surface.

I better get my digital handheld windmeter recalibrated becxause at 4
feet, the top of the wing on my Bo and six feet, the top of the wing on a
typical Cessna the wind is the same.


I'm sure Whiting will come back that there's 0.05 MPH difference and that
difference should be taken into account.
