Default Nervous about the wind

When does the wind keep you grounded?

I have been flying electrics and I just bought a used .46 Avistar. I have flown it twice now on a day calm enough to fly my electrics. It is the same but different. . .

Today the wind was over 10 mph, maybe 15 with gusts up to 25 mph. The windsock at the field was straight out and moving in different directions. This is a day I would not even consider electrics. I finally chickened out and decided to not fly the Avistar and perhaps save some time and money in repairs.

What do you think?
