I would like to pose a general question to all you Robinson jockeys out there.
1,
What wind strength/conditions would make you feel 'nervous'.
2,
What wind strength/conditions would you decide to cancel or even scrub your flight.
3,
What wind strength would you worry about starting/stopping (blade sailing)
The reason I ask is that there seems to be a huge range of opinion in pilots I have spoken to, Also Quite often I am flying in the AS350 on nasty but 'ok' days and am amazed to see 22's and 44's chopping away with no apparent reduction in speed or route!! Surely if Im feeling the bumps in the squirell it must be even worse in the teetering headed machines!!
