Default RE: landing in crosswind

With the semi-symetrical wing of the Avistar, you're much better off than the flat bottom trainers. As Brad said, you're trying to angle into the wind keeping the upwind wing low while the plane slips toward the runway. It's very tricky to do and most experienced pilots still have trouble unless they fly the Cub alot.
