Question

`

How does a headwind affect the Best Climb Angle Velocity (Vx) and Climb Angle to clear an obstacle at the end of the runway?

Best Climb Angle Indicated Velocity (Vx) determination is not affected by headwind but the climb angle will be greater

Best Climb Angle Indicated Velocity (Vx) will be slower and the climb angle will be greater

Best Climb Angle Indicated Velocity (Vx) will be faster and the climb angle will be less

Headwind will have no affect on Vx and Climb angle.
