haha nice. I took off with one of my students one day and it as dead calm. we did one turn in the pattern and when we got back to final it was 25kts directly across the runway. I took the controls and was able to get it down. it was a lot of fun.

Sweet! I had that happen to me once. Took off with 5K SW, returned about 1.5 hours later with 25-30 gusty cross winds. Not real fun...but I made it. :-)

I had instructor who use same wind conditions to practice my starts, landings, touch and go flight sequences. In 1hr 45 min I had 18 landings like that..... I was wet from sweat......but was great :)

Awesome. Wasn't pretty, but it got the job done in some very unfavorable conditions. Good confidence builder.

crazy asses
Good Job! Gusty conditions are impossible to make look pretty. Looks like you had fun getting it safely on the ground. I had to deal with gusty conditions yesterday, and still feel like I can use a drink. Strange that people are mad at you for the weather conditions on the previous posts. You CAN take off in calm winds and come home to gusts. Not really predictable.

Great job if you don't practice landing in cross winds and getting comfortable with them you should'nt fly on calm day's either. What happens when surface winds pick up while your out getting your hundred dollar hamburger. Nice vid guy's.
