This question comes up sometimes, and then a fix is made. There may be a misinterpretation in the interface between FlightGear and JSBSim about winds. For instance, when a wind is specified is that a from direction or a "to" direction? JSBSim interprets wind specification as a "to" direction. I've looked at this quite a bit internally in JSBSim and de-obfuscated it a month or two ago. However, it's possible that the interface (JSBSim.cxx) may need to be adjusted. I'll crosspost this to the JSBSim list. We'll try and get to that at some point. Meanwhile, if you run different tests and are really convinced that it's a problem, please don't hesitate to let us know.
