Recently, Matt Whiting posted:
I don't see how you get a 5 kph difference with 18m altitude difference. The chart expresses the difference as a factor relative to 1 as it can't give an absolute wind velocity difference without knowing the base velocity at 1m which is where the chart starts. [...] The conditions in the original post is that the winds were 10 kts. *reported by ATIS*. I don't know how one would translate that into wind speed at the point of touchdown with any accuracy, but it's a safe bet that the height of the wing doesn't much matter in this scenario. One can be factually correct, yet irrelevant. Neil |
