The motion of the aircraft shown is characterized at any instant by its position, velocity, and acceleration. Also of interest is the motion of the aircraft relative to the moving air. During the approach to a crosswind landing, the velocity of the aircraft relative to the air is a vector in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the aircraft, and the velocity of the aircraft relative to the ground is a vector in the direction of the runway.
