That silly quote[edit]

Why is that quote there? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.217.11.108 (talk) 21:55, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Precisions Needed[edit]

When a plane is inflight what is "the direction of travel" is it "Heading" or "Azimuth" ? It makes a really diference for caclulation :

Crosswind = abs(sin(Heading-WindOrientation))*WindSpeed

or

Crosswind = abs(sin(Azimuth-WindOrientation))*WindSpeed

External links modified[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Crosswind. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20150804055823/http://www.roadbikerider.com/riding-skills/safety-skills/physics-riding-wind to http://www.roadbikerider.com/riding-skills/safety-skills/physics-riding-wind

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Cycling section[edit]

Crosswind#Impact: please show or write the direction of the wind with that cycling group. Left to right? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:27, 19 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
