Some single engine ferry flights to HI and beyond have ditched short of HI when the tailwind did not meet expectations. ERAU Prescott AZ had a seminar one evening of a ferry flight for a Cirrus to Sydney. The Cirrus took off from KSFO about 2000 over gross; crossed 30N and made it to HI and beyond. Took a physical geography course at a local college in 2015 and the global air circulation patterns indicate in the Northern hemisphere that between 30N and 60N the prevailing winds at all altitudes below about FL400 are from the west and that the prevailing winds from the equator to 30N are from the East. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:42:20 AM PST US From: Rodger Todd Subject: Re: RV10-List: RTW Thanks very much for that Dave; I certainly wasn't aware of the low level r eversal.
