The description of runway alignment with regard to the winds at about the 12 minute mark is verbally correct but the animation graphics have it backwards. Prevailing winds are often west to east and the animated wind arrows show that in the video. But then without spinning the runways around and showing an aircraft landing into the wind, the graphic shows an aircraft landing downwind on runway 27, and the compass shows 270 as the direction the airplane is coming from while it is pointing at 090. That would be runway 9. It then spins the runway and compass around and makes the same mistake. It is wrong to show a plane landing on runway 27 when it is coming from 270. That's backwards.

Is it possible to watch the videos in high definition somewhere?

Why don't you set up the traige area on good paved road
