This is because the wind provides a tailwind, which helps to increase the aircraft&#8217;s speed and lift. A tailwind can also help to reduce the aircraft&#8217;s landing distance.<\/p>\n<p>The centre line of the runway should make an angle with the wind direction that is as close to 180\u00c2\u00b0 as possible. This will maximize the tailwind and minimize the crosswind. However, there is a limit to how close the centre line can be to 180\u00c2\u00b0. If the centre line is too close to 180\u00c2\u00b0, the aircraft may be at risk of hitting the end of the runway.<\/p>\n<p>The maximum angle between the centre line of the runway and the wind direction is 30\u00c2\u00b0. This is because, at an angle of 30\u00c2\u00b0, the aircraft will still have a tailwind, but it will also have a crosswind. A crosswind can cause the aircraft to drift off course, so it is important to keep the crosswind as small as possible.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, the landing and takeoff of an aircraft is made against the direction of the wind. The centre line of the runway should make an angle with the wind direction that is as close to 180\u00c2\u00b0 as possible, but no closer than 30\u00c2\u00b0.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;10\u00c2\u00b0&#8221; option2=&#8221;20\u00c2\u00b0&#8221; option3=&#8221;30\u00c2\u00b0&#8221; option4=&#8221;40\u00c2\u00b0&#8221; correct=&#8221;option2&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[651],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7892","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-airport-engineering","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The landing and takeoff of the air craft is made against the direction of wind.
