First.. is there a formula somewhere where I can figure out how much wind drift is coming from left or right while flying? like lets say my ground track is 10 degrees to the left of where the nose is pointed, and im going 100 knots. how much cross wind is there? (without using an E6B)
I work line some days, and sometimes when fueling airplanes, the wind isn't right and I have to smell Jet fuel during the whole fueling process. Is this dangerous? A guy just told me that Jet A and Diesel wont hurt you like 100LL or unleaded.
