so, not to start something unnecessarily but: Imagine
- I'm a beginner (not hard to do..)
- I am trying to land
- there is a cross wind that is pushing the plane to one side of the runway

What do I do?

Do I keep flying straight, and hope that the runway is wide enough that it doesn't matter?

So far, this is what I've been doing, I think. The runway is wide enough (it's actually an unused 1:1 airstrip!!!). And even if I run out of strip: the side is smooth enough it doesn't matter. But it would be nice to be able to land on a limited-width strip, at some point

Regards
