In the study reported, an investigation was conducted concerning the shape of wind shear profiles during aircraft landings, taking into account also the values of the meteorological parameters which describe the wind shears. Attention is also given to the variation of wind shear effects in the case of different aircraft types. The study was conducted for commercial, military, and STOL aircraft. A digital landing simulation model was used in the investigations.
