Default RE: Went on my own...

Well, I went back up today twice. I probably should not have. Had 10 mile cross winds gusting to 20 mph.
First time I stuck my landing pretty well! A tad hard but I was happy considering the cross wind.
The second was harder,I had a big gust come up when I was a couple of feet off the deck. Bounced it pretty good. Had no damage though, I got it on the landing gear though.
I decided not to press my luck and wait for a calmer day.
Takeoffs were better, even with the wind. The second flight I went up to about 300 ft. and just did a pattern, felt much more relaxed than the others.

Happy flying!
