Clanger,
Yup, very hard to tell what Rex meant by that, other than he meant to rebut the chap who said OAA students don't get crosswind experience. Are such blanket statements as the one under rebuttal dumb? Probably so, especially considering quite a few of those painted with that brush have PPLs they didn't get at Oxford. It seems like there's more than a dab of hyperbole on both sides of the debate. It would take a mangled blue and white pile of aluminum next to the runway at GYR to convince me anyone touched down with a 30+ knot crosswind, so I am more inclined to cut Rex slack than I am those who stereotype a school's entire student output, but I better leave it at that before this too becomes troll food.
