ground speed of 400 mph when the is blowing directly north at 50 mph.
Find the required air speed and compass heading.An airplane pilot wants to mantain a true course in the direction 250 degrees east of north with a?
Vx = 400 * cos theta - 50
Vy = 400 * sin theta
beta = atan(vy/vx) + 180
iteration scheme start with theta = 200
next theta = theta +250 - beta until beta = 250.
4 iterations gave theta = 243.2544 degrees
