The only way to take it seemed was the old trusty (hand launch) so here it is.

Default 35MPH and Bee

I was planing to be there with my 12oz Lazy Bee. I woke up in the morning at 6 am, looked at the trees and said to myself: "It will calm down". I was ready to go at 9, but when I checked weatherunderground.com I said "No way". In 35mph wind (gusts 45) I will not be able even to take my bee out of the truck . Imagine 12oz plane with 2sq ft wing in the 35mph wind. Before I take off, I would need to get if from Sunrise Blvd.

The only time I tried to fly in such wind, was when I was taxiing and taking off my SIG Kadet LT 40 flying backward.

I'm so sorry, I have missed this . OK. Next time.

Didn't have a Bee that day, but I flew the pizza box in that wind.
Too much fun !
