headwind

A headwind is a wind that blows against the direction of travel of an object, while a tailwind blows in the direction of travel. A headwind decreases the object's speed and increases the time required to reach its destination, while a tailwind has the opposite effect.
The terms are also used metaphorically in business and elsewhere about circumstances where progress is made harder (headwind) or easier (tailwind).

    Straight line stability

    I see a couple of reviews and a number of them are mentioning poor stability with side and head wind. How do you rate straight line stability of the S5, e.g. compared to the MG4 (if you had one)? Better, equal, worse?
