Nah Ppruner, Wx caused me to screw up the glide approach (was 6kts gusting 21!) due to a bit of a gust
But her comment was I should never have taken off (I by then knew this - I had decided to ditch it after only 2 circuits (three-circuit trip to complete after gear problem on the first go)).
The thing was the reported weather as I planned was fine - as I taxied a squal came in and the gusts were being reported progressively worse - fine for most flying but lethal to a glide approach if you're unlucky. The fact that it was still in limits and the culture I had come from (and the 6 weeks delay from illness, weather and the gear problem) made me go for it anyway
Learnt something from that, and enjoyed the retest with our fantastic in-house examiner.
