09:02 Outro
The first and the most important thing to remember: wind direction is always determined by where the wind is blowing FROM, not where it is blowing towards.
The directions of the wind is determined at the geographical system of coordinates invented by man back in the day. It is also called "cardinal directions" or "cardinal points" and similar.
It is interesting that in the Ancient Greece, the cardinal directions were also identified by the different winds. They were Boreas from the north, Notos from the south, Eurus from the east, and Zephyrus from the west. They are also known as the "Classical compass winds". Therefore, the concept of wind direction is very closely related to the concept of wind rose.
The wind rose is a graph that shows the prevailing wind direction and wind speed at some particular location according to statistics from many years of meteorological observations (also knows as weather history). So the concept of wind rose is used often precisely in meteorology.
Another word that says the same thing is "compass," a device for determining cardinal directions you know probably from your Scout days.
Thank you very much for your time! I hope you enjoy this video!
Wishing you all the best!
Your "Captain" Joe

If you have a GPS device which gives you the ground speed, you can compare this to your IAS and voilà you’ve got your wind direction and speed. Keep in mind that the wind at altitude might differs from surface wind. Usually it turns about 30 degree to the right up to 3000ft AGL.

@@JacobDlougach Thanks for your comment. As a rule of thumb you can add 2% to your IAS for every 1000ft altitude. Then you get your TAS. And take temperature into account. But you don’t need it. If you fly with 100% tailwind (=max(GS-IAS)) you just remember GS, turn 180° and fly with 100% headwind. Now you have a look at your GS again. Wind speed is half the difference between the two ground speeds. Nevertheless you can determine wind direction without doing the math.

Hello, retired ATP-RW here, you did not mention to watch a bird land or take-off, they too prefer to take off into wind. If your IMC, use a VOR or ADF if available, to determine drift. Besides, in pre GPS days I was always aware during the entire flight where the wind was from for instantaneous auto-rotation decisions. Heck now a days, your GPS will display it.

5:05 As a sailor, I'm slightly offended. It's true that surfers and some sailboats prefer to sail perpendicular to the wind direction, but you'll see them sail in any direction except straight into the wind. Sailboat masts roughly point downwind and surfers lean roughly upwind The thing is, sailing as a sport is a tactical game about getting upwind and downwind. Therefor, you need to know why they do what they do to be able to understand any further nuance. Even many people driving motorboats don't understand sailboats and try to cut in front, whereas they could just change their course often without having to slow down There're a lot of ways to spot the wind direction, but you need a lot of nuance and I think you should take the time to sit down and observe the following phenomena: 1. Shores, trees and buildings will cast a wind shadow on the windward side as said in the video. 2. In medium or high winds, dark patches of ripples will move downwind. 3. In high winds, light lines or even white lines of bubbles will form alongside the wind direction due to the air leaving the boundary layer over the water. 4. Like your wing chord, the chord of a sail is always at the optimal angle of attack. Sailboats going upwind will keep the close hauled, while going downwind requires them to be out to the side. 5. Surfers like perpendicular angles to the wind and lean into it. 6. Sailboats like any course as long as it isn't straight upwind, and downwind isn't great either. If you see a sailboat almost standing still compared to the others, it's either close to sailing into the wind or sailing straight downwind. The mast of a sailboat will point roughtly downwind One final thing: there's no such thing as a sailing licence or something. There's diplomas, but people who just got them still suck at sailing. They generally get where they want to go in the end, but regatta sailors get there in almost literally half the time ...but if there's one thing you don't learn at inshore sailing class, it's course correction

I can add: you G1000 calculates the wind and it is also a good indicator when you already fly low. Also you can see your correction angle and when you make turns of roughly 90 degrees you will be able compile a good picture where the wind is coming from. Basically that is how the GPS is calculating it. You can also time from one visual point to anouther that you have on your map and determine your groundspeed and calculate it from there with you speed indicator ...

While looking for sail boats from the airplane bare in mind that sails are triangular so they can "swing" around the mast and navigate with almost any wind direction. (Anything more than 30 deg from the bow is good) A better tip would be to look for boats at anchor as generally they face the wind.

Skydiver here, and private pilot: there is an alternate way, though it is not 100% accurate. Watch for cloud shadows. You can pick a reference and follow the edge of a shadow for a few seconds. Obviously that will give you the wind at whatever altitude the clouds are, but if they are low (below 2k AGL), it should be pretty representative of what's happening on the ground.

If you don't have the funds to pay for it, don't start until you do. It's too expensive to take a lesson, then have to wait a few weeks to take another one while you work and earn the funds. You'll forget a lot of what was covered on the previous lesson and have to waste valuable training time covering previous lessons. You're also opening yourself up to beginning, then getting frustrated and then quitting.

You could also fly full circles somewhat near the ground, memorize a point below the plane and look in which direction you drift away from that point as you get "blown" away by the wind. Not sure how good that works with somewhat faster planes, but it is good for slow(er) gliders. Happy that you mentioned the cows, learned about that in paragliding school, but that trick only works well on flat meadows in the valley, not on the steeper ones in the mountains. (And did you know that cows can get pretty nosy and try to "inspect" (or eat?) you paraglider? Me neither, until I hat to scare away one that got to near to my wing.)

Depends on the angle of the ground you want to land on. If the wind is completely uphill the cows would not face downhill all the time. If it is a plateau it might as well work. But I would not want to land between free roaming cows in the alps, these animals can get wild and angry. I would prefer flying above the area and look in which direction I go faster or if I move sideways, much more reliable. And, if it is a regular flying spot someone will have installed some wind indicators, sticks with a bands on it are most often used.

Flying two courses 90 degrees apart and checking GPS ground speed vs indicated airspeed can help too. Where roads are straight and follow N/S E/W directions, you can fly along those and see which way the wind is pushing you. Of course, that's winds aloft and not the wind on the ground though ;)

Many many years ago, I worked for a company that was building a skyscraper for BankBoston. The location was near the coast, but also had many other skyscrapers around it, none blocking the view to the coast I may add. Thing is, the architect studio wanted to add a fountain with programmed displays - or shows - of water moving up and down or whatever. The day, oh my, they plugged that damn computer controlled (we're talking Win2k here) fountain, execs got bukkaked. Nobody thought about the wind tunnels forming there (with alll the surrounding skyscrapers right next to the coastline) .Nobody threw a blade of grass, nobody used a wind sock or anemometer or cow grazing on site before installing the whole shabang... nothing.

I'd be wary of the cattle one and definitely wouldn't use sheep as an indicator as all they are worried about is food, sleep and depending on the time of the year sex. But cattle are inquisitive and so even if it isn't in their field they may stand and watch something you might not see or notice be it a wild animal, someone walking or working or they have heard a vehicle coming to give them some food or a treat.

No, although the CTAF frequency _may_ be the UNICOM frequency. In general, at an airport with a part-time control tower, CTAF is the tower frequency when the tower is closed. At an uncontrolled field with UNICOM, CTAF is the UNICOM frequency. At uncontrolled fields without UNICOM, CTAF is another specified frequency, usually MULTICOM. The CTAF frequency is indicated on the sectional chart with a highlighted letter "C" and is listed in the Chart Supplement. If you're flying into a private field without a published CTAF frequency, make your announcements on 122.9.

Hopefully, in such strong winds there will be other ways to determine wind direction... but it's worth keeping in mind that turbines aren't always reliable.

Or one can chose an IAS and fly parallell to the runway outside the circuit @1000ft in both directions, then compare which direction has the fastest ground speed. Then you know that you should chose to land in the direction of the lowest ground speed... ;)

As a Texan I'm ashamed to admit I didn't know the one about the cattle. I guess that makes me "all hat and no cattle" as the saying goes.

And if you're flying high enough to be safe, how will you be able to see stuff like flags, the bending of foliage, and cows?

All these tips are tips,... as to whether necessary or relavant for landing in a scenario where the plane has to land all these irrelevant... for airports with no atc, well there maybe a helpful tip but not something to ponder on lol... going around is always an option n if it's an engine out scenario in the wind or out of wind is no point..is just put the iron bird down in the most lifesaving way lol
