Or as one Captain said to an official of an airport asking for the risk assessment of us parking into wind on a stand designed to go nose (with wind up the bum) in but we could spin round on.

No I don't have one. And neither do I have one for throwing 10 tonnes of aircraft at a runway at over 140mph in the pissing rain in 50mph winds now off.

If you really want to see risk assessment taken to extreme have a search on the web for the CFIT risk assessment form from some bunch in the US (you get shown it in EGPWS training). You would need a 2 hour report and a calculator to fill the bloody thing in and that's just one sector.
