Well Gene, it has been nice and warm this spring but the wind just hasn't quit at all. I have an old student retraining and I took him out last week on the buddy box. The wind really didn't effect him at all as far as flying goes but when he would have the plane 8 inches over the ground with the power off and the plane just hovered there it was a bit nerve wracking for him. It isn't too strong to fly in but it isn't something to be training in either. I was bringing the plane back into the pits down wind and the plane got flipped over on it's back. It's been a steady 30mph with heavy gusts. According to the weather man on TV this has been the strongest constant wind for the month of April in history. I have been going out once a week because of cabin fever but I have been flying my pattern planes. My area has been one constant dust cloud and my Allegra can keep up with the sneeze factor. It is warm and sunny though. Just hard to drive the van and keep it in my own lane!!
