Dear subscribers,
One question bothers me for a while now and maybe someone can give me an
answer on it.
How do I find the right altitude with a head wind?
Usually winds get stronger when you go higher - at the same time the
plane goes faster when you go higher.
If I think long enough I probably could come up with a solution
calculating headwind components at different altitudes and comparing it
with the 3 kts speed increase per 100ft (Craig Berland's number).
How do you find your altitude without messing around for too long?
Thanks
Ralf
