• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

MSFS How do you find general wind directions to calculate a Runway angle?

How do you find general wind directions to calculate a Runway angle? Is there a weather webpage that shows general area wind directions most of the time for a particular land area?

Many thanks in advance.

Quite a strange question, do you plan to build your own real airport in the middle of nowhere? 🙂

In case
A scientific approach may involve searching for some nearby weather station, they usually have historical data including wind directions
 
Hey Mamu,

I figured I might as well make an airfield that has the right angle for winds. I do this with planes that are custom designs, trying to figure in as much realism as possible. I thought I would do that with airfields that are fictional. Who knows, it might be made one day from that sim sample.

Great videos! I hope you are doing well in your work.
