The wind correction angle for a true course of 30 degrees, with an airspeed of 300, with a wind direction of 90, and with a wind speed of 50, is -8.3 degrees. The indicated course must then be 21.7 degrees.
CCORRECTION = sin-1 (VWIND sin (CWIND - CACTUAL) / VINDICATED)

Which direction on a compass has a bearing of 450degrees?
On a compass, the direction with a bearing of 450 degrees is located in the northwest region. The standard compass measures the direction in degrees, starting from North at 0 degrees and proceeding clockwise until 360 degrees. Hence, a bearing of 450 degrees is just beyond the West direction, which is marked at 270 degrees, and points towards the northwest. ⓗⓣⓣⓟⓢ :⃝ /⃝ /⃝ⓦⓦⓦ .⃝ⓓⓘⓖⓘⓢⓣⓞⓡⓔ②④ .⃝ⓒⓞⓜ /⃝ⓡⓔⓓⓘⓡ /⃝③②⑤⑥⑤⑧ /⃝Ⓡⓐⓙⓘⓥⓑⓙⓞⓝⓐ /⃝
