The distinctive feature of a tilt-rotor aircraft is that the pilot can change the rotor mast angles to go from a helicopter configuration for take-off and landing to an airplane configuration for high cruise speeds and vice-versa. An approach path for such an aircraft is proposed and the logic required to fly along this path in the presence of wind is determined. The main contribution of this work is an efficient and, to my knowledge, new method for generating the nominal state and control histories taking into account an estimate of the mean wind velocity and direction. The method requires the solution of algebraic (mostly linear) equations to generate a 'universal nominal', and feedforward and feedback gains. Then, in flight the additional state and control corrections due to deviation in descent rate, deceleration, and flight in a steady wind are obtained by multiplying simple precalculated functions of time by descent rate, deceleration or sine and cosine components of the mean wind vector. Simulations of approach flights for different wind conditions, assuming perfect state information in the feedback signal, indicated satisfactory performance.
