maybe a rookie question


Recommended Posts

OK, I just bougth the license for FSUIPC last week and works very well, at least for the problem of drastic change of aloft winds.

here is my question:

Flight Conditions

Flight level 330

IAS 290 (.78M)

Heading 177

Wind 012 / 49kt

Ground speed 397

True Air Speed 445

With a Tail wind, so so like this, ¿my Ground speed should not be higher that the TAS?

I think that with tail winds yours GS must be higher than TAS, because you are on a mass of air thats "moves" with you.

Thanks for any answer and MERRY X-MAS!!!

Please get FSUIPC version 3.52 from http://www.schiratti.com/dowson. The problem you mention only existed in 3.51 and was corrected as soon as it was recognised. You can keep up to date by reading the announcements in this Forum.

Regards,

Pete
