RE: Am I a wimp or what.....
I agree with the many other posts.... you should be alright about your choice not to fly. At the time you felt it was the "right" decision...don't second guess it. Flying when you are lacking confidence or doubting your capability is at best no fun, and at worst may leed to dumb thumbing and result in a broken plane. I believe we all need to learn to handle some wind. Some of us will test our skills against stronger gustier winds than others would. Whenever the winds are gusting or swirling across the field, one of the old axioms driven into me during my full scale pilot training always comes to mind..... "Takeoffs are optional, but landings are mandatory."
