Hegenberger attempted to check wind drift by launching smoke bombs ( carried for that purpose ) over the tail, but was hindered by glare.

Satellite tracking of day migrating raptors such as ospreys and honey buzzards has shown that older individuals are better at making corrections for wind drift.
13.
It starts as the Southern Indian Ocean Current, a part of the larger Antarctic Circumpolar Current ( also known as the West Wind Drift ).
14.
The aperture sight was also able to correct for wind drift operated by turning a windage knob that moved the sight in approximately 1 MOA increments.
15.
The Doppler radar ( used to calculate wind drift and ground speed ) often had to use information in its computer's memory because of processing lapses.
16.
The output of the calculator drove flexible shafts that rotated the sight head to the proper angles in azimuth and altitude, representing the wind drift and range angle.
17.
Electrical power was provided to light the collimator as well as the " drift scale ", which indicated the angle to fly to correct for the wind drift.
18.
"If you're going to test on rye, then you pick an area of the United States which is not a rye-producing area, in case there's any wind drift, " he said.
19.
When dry, this type of grass produces a seed head that becomes wind blown and can become a nuisance value and a fire hazard due to it gathering in wind drifts.
20.
It flows south from the equator to the west wind drift . It joins the Falkland Current at the Argentine Sea ( see Brazil Falkland Confluence ), making it a temperate sea.
