I agree with Dicksoucy. A beginner with an Instructor in that kind of wind should not be an issue. Don't be intimidated by the wind. Learn the following line - "What Wind?" Learn to fly in the wind, to use the wind, to understand it, ultra slow flight, crab on landing - it's all fun and you will be a better pilot for it. My cutoff point for the fly/nofly decision is whether or not the wind blows the plane over when taxi-ing. If it does not, I'm off and havin fun! My God, if I had to wait for the perfect day to fly in Wisconsin, I would be grounded 364 days a year...... and that's being optimistic!
