What airspeed and direction should an airplane maintain in order to continue having a ground speed of 800 km/h and a direction of 140° with wind at 130 km/h at 27°?

Answer :

Suppose, (As not given in the question), wind direction is opposite to the direction of airplane.Then, it's opposing it. For that, airplane need to do an extra work.

Air-plane speed should be = 800 + 130 = 930 Km/h
Air-Plane direction should be:= 140 + 27 = 167 degrees

Hope this helps!
