I have flown in 20-30 mph gusts with one of my SPADs (wing loading was around 20 oz/sqft). I can take off, fly around the field, and land, but it just wasn't any fun. Trying to wind correct on loops was funny (did I mention it was cross wind to the runway?). Its good to get that mid-winter fix, since clear days seem to translate to windy this time of year. But its not nearly as much fun.
