I was just recently crusing at 34,000 feet testing out the DC-10 when i encountered winds ranging from 170-205kts. Just thought I would let you all know if anyone was interested, was indeed pretty hectic having it slam into my nose.

Easterly? Or westerly?
Winds over Japan are always easterly. Which is bad for my current flight from RJAA-RCTP.

I have found looking at windy before flights it’s where the strongest winds are
Hey, these were the winds I was telling @schyllberg about!
Most winds globally apart from tropics are strong western
Northern hemisphere blows east southern tend to blow more west.
also i had the 180kt ish winds blowing northerly in japan
It think it’s actually both West I got it mixed up
You were actually right the first time.
OPPs lol it’s 11 at night here 😂
Yeh I’ve heard that but I am yet to see the winds in the Southern hemisphere blow to the west
around France and through the English channel I had wind from 90-180kt at 36000ft! but I believe its dropped to 100
