Best Answer

A plane has to takeoff in the direction in which wind is blowing so that the airplane can get help when taking off at a speed of 160 knots. So for example you are going to California and the wind is blowing from Europe, you would have to takeoff from runway 13R if your at JFK and you would make a sharp left turn heading to the west into the wind and climb at an altitude of 36,000 feet and cruise at a speed of about 500 knots so you can get to California in about 6 hours and 20 minutes. I hope I answered your question.
