I have had two not funny crosswind experiences in my meagre 150hrs. One, Runway 06 grass, wind 130/18 a/c 610kg Emeraude. I opted to cheat & approached at about 090 deg as the area to the south was recently cut but not collected hay. Stopped while still on the runway.
The alternative was a 40 mile diversion/lift home/car retrieval etc.
Two, landed in 18G25 straight down the runway, taxiied onto grass, turned downwind to park, switched off & held stick back!! Stuck prop blade into grass 4" whilst feeling a prat. No damage, very lucky, still feel stupid, won't do that again!
