Thought I would try and work out the angle that the aircraft were pointing into the wind on Saturday afternoon. The scenery in the background of the photographs was not all that helpful on Google Earth, however from the beach to the threshold is around 8 Degrees. As I could see a significant portion of the starboard side of the aircraft, then it may have been as high as 14 Degrees. Open to any other thoughts on this one.
