This does not hold true for the HE 111 so I may just be doing it wrong in the Blenheim rather than a game bug. But anyway, I can still hit the target!
A bigger difference seems to be the altitude. Make sure you adjust before takeoff since the pressure seems to vary according to the time of day in-game and you can be a few hundred feet out on startup.

It really looks like we need Met reports! To work out the GS using vectors you use side 'B' of the computer and a chinagraph pencil!
