Default Great Planes Tiger Moth experiences ?

In a crosswind, it crabs a bit, adding to the realism. 10 to 12 knots is not bad though... Now at 15+, it is still flyable, and crosswinds are managable, though you might have a problem turning it around on the ground as it likes to weathervane.

10 to 20 degrees would be hardly noticeable. It's the 90 degree crosswinds that are somewhat challenging. Fortunately it's a stable plane.

Saturday I think we had 25+, and it was still flyable.
