I don't have yet registered FSUIPC and must indeed lower my speed at cruise level of +- the half of the wind speed or ... accept the 600 points
penalities (sometimes BOTH
)
ex: your Vne is 330 and have changing winds og 90 kts => reduce speed at 280 kts.
You can try "playing". an overspeed will occure when suddenly the wind come face to you. So if you have winds changing between 60 and 90 kts and have
currently face to you at 90 kts then you can encrease your speed near to max, lets tell 320 for a Vne at 330. should the wind decrease to 60, reduce
to 300, should it go side wind, reduce to 280. When the wind will get again face to you at 90, you will be near the 330 limit . Let the IAS decrease
at 315-320 and then, if the wind keep face to you and strong apply some throttle to maintain this speed.
It is a non stop cat/mouse game
