Why should an aeroplane flying downwind at low level on a gusty day, copping a gust up the backside, be worse of than when it's flying into wind and suffers a lull in headwind.
THAI TUN

As Intruder says it is the same, providing the shape of the gust is the same. But I never said it was different did I? The thread is about downwind turns isn't it?
