Default RE: .46 UCD3D Flutter

So, if the wind was blowing 100 mph and you were flying into the wind at a throttle setting to maintain a ground speed of 0 mph, are you saying that all that air flowing over the ailerons would have no effect on them?

Don't you have to fly at a higher throttle setting to make headway into the wind?
