Not flying because of that wind and crosswind component does not seem to make a lot of sense as others have said unless you are an early solo pilot who needs to do more solo circuit consolidation.

The new year looks promising, only 5 days old and I am already agreeing with Bose-X, what is the world coming to!



There are a gazillion threads on crosswinds etc.

The demonstrated crosswind is exactly that. It ain't a limit, it is nothing legal other than a certification requirement.

At best it is some guidance.

Happy (crosswind) landings.
I have a fair bit of experience. Landed a 152 in a lot worse than 15....the club had stopped flying to everyone. At the end of the day it's their airctaft and my licence so sods law
