Andy.. think again. This is not a wind correction problem...it's "if I point the aircraft in this direction at this airspeed, where will the wind take me?"
Hey, your calculations are totally wrong. Your true track is 64 deg's and your ground speed is 134kts. A simple look at your at your computer will tell you if your flying 75deg's, and the wind is coming from 350. It has to be coming from your left (port) side, so you have to be flying into the wind, which means your true track has to be less than 75 deg's. You worked out correctly that the WCA is 11deg's, how ever you need to subtract it rather than add it. Flying on a track of 84 deg's will def make for an interesting flight.
Thank you for uploading this. I'm currently studying for the navigation exams (PPL) and this is the clearest demonstration I've seen :)

Yeah it's wrong. This video should be removed.
In Ireland we need to add or subtract Magnetic Variation is that calculated before you use the Wind Computer?
No, not in this example.
thank you for posting...but you could have went little slow....
Where the hell did you find the confidence to video this and post it. What your teaching is wrong!!
