What’s with the namecalling and repeated attacks on me? If I call people idiots or aholes, I get moderated in a matter of minutes.
Yes, I get it, I’m just amazed that you as pilots and your airlines accept cancellations because of a light crosswind.
I have never seen this in any other areas of the world. Any limitations I have come from my airline and not ATC and then we are talking 40 kts or more at specific airports.
Let the pilots decide. Or run departures to the south and landings to the west.
Maybe it’s too much work for your ATC?
At least cessnapete understands what I’m saying. There is hope!
