D=RT
\n" ); document.write( "1190=R*5
\n" ); document.write( "R=1190/5
\n" ); document.write( "R=238 MPH WITH THE WIND.
\n" ); document.write( "1190=R*7
\n" ); document.write( "R=1190/7
\n" ); document.write( "R=170 MPH AGAINST THE WIND.
\n" ); document.write( "(238-170)/2=68/2=34 MPH IS THE SPEED OF THE WIND.
\n" ); document.write( "238-34=204 SPEED OF THE PLANE IN STILL AIR.
\n" ); document.write( "170+34=204 DITTO.
