Windmill
Instantly Determine Wind Direction and Speed
The windsock shows the direction and intensity of the wind in seconds as the fabric tube inflates, whether at sea, on runways, or during crane operations. High visibility with red and white stripes ensures clear detection even in foggy conditions. The 3.6m length/0.9m opening extends horizontally in 15 knots of wind according to ICAO standards – essential for navigation and landing safety.
Windsock Features
Swivel mast mounting allows for free rotation, UV/tear-resistant parachute fabric offers long-lasting use. Inflation angle estimates wind speed (3 knot increments per stripe), and a lighting option is available for nighttime use.
Real Scenarios and Advantages
Runway: Wind is uncertain – tube direction determines landing direction.
Port maneuvering: Intensity increases – horizontal position provides a 15+ knot warning.
Helicopter heliport: Foggy weather – red and white stripes are visible from a distance.
