February 8, 200620 yr Correct, and the reason why airport winds are magnetic because runway headings are also magnetic. It makes sense to have them compatible.Michael J.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/pmdg_744F.jpghttp://sales.hifisim.com/pub-download/asv6-banner-beta.jpg Michael J.
February 8, 200620 yr I simply misinterpreted what you meant by aiport winds. Yes, the winds in an ATIS will be magnetic. We have about a 17E deviation here now in the Spokane area.----------------------------------------------------------------John MorganReal World: KGEG, UND Aerospace Spokane Satillite, Private ASEL 141.2 hrs, 314 landings, 46 inst. apprs.Virtual: MSFS 2004"There is a feeling about an airport that no other piece of ground can have.

February 8, 200620 yr My apology indeed. When I stated the above, somehow my mind was thinking I had sketched with 86 as GS and 100 as TAS. I had forgotten I had actually sketched another based on my earlier notion. The vectors layout and directions still remain though. Thanks for pointing out.
