hi all,
i am having trouble completing a trial atpl question regarding CP vs PNR.
can someone have a look through it for me??
An aircraft is to fly from A to B, a distance of 1600NM at a TAS of 400kt. The endurance (excluding reserves) is 5 hours. The wind component that would put the CP between A & B in the same position as the PNR to A would be:
A. +80kt
B. -80kt
C. zero
D. +40kt
i have gone through all variations (i think) and i cant get the answer they gave.
THEIR ANSWER: B
any reasoning why would also be great
thanks nudge.
