Can anyone who flies in the US tell me how prolific windsocks at GA
airports actually are. Currently we get one at each end of the runway by
default in the airport data, but I'm wondering if that's generally
overkill? If an airport has a segmented circle (nicely visible from aerial
photos) is that where the windsock is usually located?
My local airport (KANE) has one "official" lighted wind sock located near the intersection of the two runways. If you look around though, there are several "unofficial" windsocks in various states of rattiness that different people or businesses have hung up.
I think that Robin's approach was to autogen all the wind socks and then let users correct for individual airports as they find the time.
