Not really much to tell more than what newb said. Really, that's the basics. Above and beyond that, you need to learn how the wind blows around your regular flying field, I.E., prevailing winds (which way the wind blows more often than not), any small eddys or areas of turbulence that develop, and above and beyond that it's experience. Gained, I might add, by going out and actually flying your airplane in the wind.

Now I'm not telling you to go out and fly no matter what the conditions, especially with an Aerobird. But start off slow, this is a gradual process and it takes some time. It might wind up costing you some flying days, true, but as your experience grows, so will your confidence level, and eventually you'll be ready to fly even in a hurricane crosswind. Well, maybee not quite a hurricane, but you get the idea.

One other part of this equation is the airplane. True, you can fly any airplane in the wind, it just depends on your skill level as a pilot. But there are airplanes that are easier to fly in teh wind than others. Taildraggers, generally, are harder to handle in crosswinds than trike gear planes. Low wing planes are usually less suscuptible than high wing planes. If you get the chance to go to your local R/C field, check out what planes seem to handle wind better than others. I'm really not bashing your aerobird, but it's not going to like much wind at all. Way too light, not enough power, lots of wing area. I'm not saying it CAN'T be flown in the wind, but its' not the best.
