RE: Windy decision
Greetings nilo:
A good measure to see if there is too much wind is to assemble your airplane in the pit area and set it down on the ground in the pit area and put the nose pointing into the wind.
If your airplane is not blown over and you have the confidence and pratice under your belt it's time to learn how the wind can be our friend.
Flying our planes is a balancing act and we have to manipulate the winds conditions to assist our landings.
If we know before take off that our engine will remain running and we pratice at different wind speeds we can fly.
The wind is our planes pillow and the engine is what we use to put the airplane where we want it.
