On a somewhat related note - jets on aircraft carriers do NOT take off with the wind. They take off against it. If they take off with the wind, they may not have enough lift.

"Nature has constituted utility to man the standard and test of virtue. Men living in different countries, under different circumstances, different habits and regimens, may have different utilities; the same act, therefore, may be useful and consequently virtuous in one country which is injurious and vicious in another differently circumstanced" - Thomas Jefferson, moral relativist
