Default Winds on approach

Consistency is valuable when you're still getting the hang of IFR
approaches. However, once past the initial phase, you need to
practice approaches at different speeds because eventually you will
need to move the airplane along with traffic behind you. Also, I find
that in windy conditions, a faster approach is easier to control so
often add an inch of MP to my customary power setting.
