Then spoke to CFI who said tongue in cheek "I can handle it, can you?"
I thought I could but there would be lttle point in flying as it would be extremely bumpy and not very useful to me.
Then started thinking,is there a "down the runway limit" ?
Called my next door neighbour who is an airline captain ,he thought there was no down runway limit,only crosswind limits.
Any thoughts on this?

I would peronally say if you are asking this kind of question here on prune then there is already a wee bit of doubt in your head, this should be enough to tell you to stay on the ground, I know I would
