It's easy to see what motivates us to find other options. As Jim pointed out this isn't really the proper place, if we want to further discuss this maybe the IMAC, pattern or aerodynamics forum would be best. I personally would like to see it addresses in the Pattern forum as there is where it applies beast and that forum has good participation.
+1 I really do hate to be a wet blanket...
(yup, I've got a couple thousand hours on an ILS in a crosswind )
The pattern forums here are still very much alive and kicking!

most of all have fun, guys.
