The Impact of the Wind Component on the Aircraft Fuel Consumption and Pricing

Abstract

The article deals with the wind component and fuel consumption and pricing differences. The article contains two main chapters - theoretical (general knowledge) and practical (simulated models - in different flight stages based on the dates from the AFM manual of the C560 XLS+ A/C type). The discussion evaluates the upcoming data and shows how the fuel price can change. The article's topic concerns meteorology, A/C type performance, and economy. Every part of the mentioned topic is important for a safe, fluent, and economical flight.
