There's a mistake in air-relative drift of the wind. The aircraft moves IN the wind, and the vortex does too, so the vortex doesn't drift relative to the aircraft.

On the ground, fine, but not air-to-air.

[SunriseHealthFoods]

if you see a  747, stay as far back as posssible

good joke. call the rookie flight attendant from the cockpit and ask her if she smells smoke.
