In her study, children jointly solved complex algebra problems on flight dealing with the relationships among aircraft, wind speed, time, and headwind or tailwind conditions.
With investor confidence at a low ebb, hopes that the single currency will be launched on a strong economic tailwind look unlikely.
The weather indicated a tailwind component.
I am grateful for this tailwind.
In the event of a headwind or tailwind, "heading" and course in an aircraft are theoretically identical.
Several factors make this record feat especially amazing, although there was a tailwind estimated at 25 mph.
Determining the ground speed of an aircraft requires the calculation of the head or tailwind.
Aircraft usually have maximum tailwind and crosswind components which they can not exceed.
