Climb Wind Page

Featured Replies

Do i have to enter the "climb wind" in the MCDU before takeoff or during my cruise climb?

Which aircraft is it? FSLabs? Aerosoft? ToLiss? FlightFactor? MSFS A320NEO?

In all cases, climb wind makes very little difference to your MCDU calculation.

Not super important. 

In the B737 if that field is omitted winds are assumed to be zero, and for a cruise climb it would use actual winds.

Impact is the adjusted climb speed (slower for tailwind, faster in headwind. This entry does not replace forecasted winds on LEGS page.
