Here in central TX, if you can't fly in 20 mph wind, you don't fly much at all.

Wind is scary till you learn to deal with it. Once you learn to deal with it... as long as the wind is les than the stall speed of the plane you can fly.

I sometimes fly in wind that is almost the cruise speed of the plane... Its interresting when I have to hold 1/3 throttle and down elevator to stop the plane on the runway. [:-]
