Hey Gene, I heard the local radio guy talking about delays at ATL, and
he's a pilot with a commercial rating. Well, in talking about delays
he said the time would grow today because of crosswind landings. In
that statement he said that the traffic pattern gets spread out
(larger) when there is cross winds. Why? Unless it's just because of
ground tracking on the windward side, or just to get lined up out
farther?
