The Plane don't know it's windy my friend says all the time.<div id=''divCleekiAttrib'' style=''display: none;'' expanded=''0'' activeid=''-1'' menuleft=''0'' menutop=''0'' menuright=''0'' menubottom=''0''> </div>

Very true for steady state winds, but YOU know when gusts blow it around. And turbulence is more often a part of windy days. Of course, the airplane also knows about turbulence and reacts to it as well, usually before you do.
