Can you clarify your point about the 15 mph wind a little further?

If planes don't feel the wind wouldn't aircraft carriers be able to stand still and launch their jets?

Didn't the Wright brothers have some trouble flying without a head wind?

If the wind was blowing 100 mph and you were at full throttle just to maintain a ground speed of 0 mph wouldn't your ailerons know about that?
