Default RE: Nervous about the wind

It was really windy. The only thing I wasn't comfortable about is that my engine sucks.. lol, I just ordered a new one.


But, the wind was blowing away from me... I started my approach WAAAAY to the outside. I would be coming in nice and slow and soon as would bring the rudder around to line up the plane it would take off like a bullet. I was kinda cool to watch. But I was missing the runway,


It was probably too windy to be flying anyway, but I think the way I was doing it was wrong. lol, but cool to watch.
