An airplane flying at 185 kts with heading 320? Towards a target 300 nmi (nautical miles) away, experiences a steady wind of 23 kts from 020? If the time, without wind, to fly to the target was t. Answer the following:
a. What is the time to fly 300 nmi now in terms of t.
b. If there was no correction made in heading as a result of the wind, after the time –found in (a)– how many nmi would the airplane be off from the original target.
c. What is the direction the airplane must now fly to go to the target (Assume wind effect is negligible for this short distance)
