Wind correction = ½
For Flaps 45° landing, the minimum wind correction is 5 KIAS and
the maximum is 15 KIAS.
For Flaps 22° landing, the minimum wind correction is 5 KIAS and
the maximum is 20 KIAS.

EXAMPLE:
- V = 118 kt
REF
- Reported wind = 16 kt, gusting to 25 kt
- The wind correction would be ½ (16) + (25 - 16) = 17 kt
However the maximum wind correction is 15 kt (Flaps 45°),
thus:
- V = 118 kt + 15 kt = 133 kt
