Data from comet tail deflection observations were used to analyze the relationship between the solar-wind aberrational velocity and the heliographic latitude in the near-equatorial region. The aberrational velocities are found to vary with heliographic latitude, decreasing near the equator and increasing over active solar regions. Active solar-wind zones are found to shift in the course of the 11-year solar-activity cycle. The mean solar-wind aberrations velocity is greater near the solar-activity mimimum than near the maximum. The aberrational velocity at 0.5-2.5 AU is independent of heliocentric distance.
