The wind question is interesting to me due to the size of our coaches. I want to isolate the effects of the wind from something going on with the coach. If I am pulling to the right and the wind is going that direction, it makes me feel better.

The more experienced drivers will simply look at the patterns in the weeds on the side of the road to figure out the wind direction,[b] but as a recovering engineer, I know there has to be a better way.[/b]

cheers,

I suppose you could add a pitot tube and static ports to each side of the coach, measure the differential pressures... thus calculate the wind component.. This would require a black box that was designed by an engineer.... (that should satisfied the need) Cool
