Thank you for the clear explanation! A few things I was confused about and clarified myself (as a rank beginner) from various sources incl your video: * The runway markings point towards the direction of runway NOT its starting location (eg. 36 is actually located in the south/180 degree point and NOT in the north). I had a wrong vision in my mind about the magnetic heading markings * Approach the short end such that you will make the same turn again to land (ie two right turns or two left) * Choose the heading with smallest angle with the wind direction.
I’m glad you brought up the runway end thing. I’m so used to it now, but starting out I found myself occasionally confused as well about where I needed to be to land on a certain runway.
Amazing explanation
very helpful!
Thank you for the video , helped me understand this concept.
