Harry C, Jack and All,
I researched this and the discussion regarding landing jets originated from Steve Ellzey's article in the Summer 2008 issue of "Contrails", Vol.18, Issue 3, Page 5. Steve discusses landing techniques as derived from 2 Top Gun class competitors for the various landing legs including upwind gear pass, downwind leg, turn- to -base, approach and flare to include compensation for wind. This is where the confusion begins and I suggest thatthe guidedelete all discussion regarding wind compenation as this can be bestexplained in actual practise.
I do agree that wind effects must be compensated for in landing and thatthe model airspeed remains constant for a given throttle setting and AOA- with no induced bank angle.Differences in ground speed may be perceivedby the pilot standing in a fixed position and this may lead to landing problems.
Thanks to Harry C and Jack D for bringing this to attention.
