I can see how to set the wind direction in the dialogue, but how do I determine where north is at whatever scenery I choose to load?
It would sure be nice to have a wind sock near the runway <hint>

Yep, I have the same problem. Furthermore, the gushes of wind look pretty unreal to me so I turned them off again.

Easiest way is to set a standard wind direction of 270 or so at 6 m/s and watch to see which direction your model weathervanes. Adjust accordingly.
Gusts are additive, i.e. they add to the existing wind speed with slight random directions to the right and left of the current direction.
