    I would say Southeast east.

    And yes, that is a real direction.

    You know it really depends where the plane is going, how far its destination is, and what the speed of the wind is. Sometimes its faster with a tailwind to fly with the wind, but if its going in the opposite direction then it may just be better to fly with a headwind.

    If you just dont care about any of that shit, than its obviously better to fly with the wind than against it. So if the wind is blowing from the northwest than going anywhere from South to West should give you a good tailwind. If you hit the east side you are more likely to get a crosswind.

    If the plane wants to go east.. It should go east.
