and hence it's no surprise they're nervous landing in 15 x-winds.
Yes, but I thought the whole point of this was it is not talking about wind on LANDING, but wind aloft. Also, I agree with the sentiment of doing it for fun so go back and have a cuppa, but we were talking limits here rather than being comfortable, so I think you need to be looking at having flown away, overnight and then wanting to get back, that is when a limit comes in, not when you have gone down for a quick jolly and might decide not to fly because it might be uncomfortable!
