Pro Tips
Windsocks also indicate wind direction relative to the runway, which is critical for takeoff and landing.
If the windsock is fluctuating wildly, it indicates gusty conditions (turbulent air).
Fun Fact
Did you know? Orange is the standard color for windsocks because it provides the best contrast against most backgrounds.
