Description

Wind import function for the A380, which is quite crucial for long flights, as wind can change both ETA and the associated fuel predictions quite a lot. Currently, both ETA and fuel pred change constantly and dramatically, one minute EFOB would be 13.4 and the next it would be 7.9.

I believe wind import is already implemented in the A32NX.

Cruise wind is really not implemented properly in the A32NX. This wants a much more comprehensive re-architecture to be useful for long flights, where the wind maybe be substantially different at different waypoints.

@tracernz Alright, I understand. In the mean time would it be possible to port over basic functionality just to have something?

Thank you.
