Default RE: "Windy" trainer

I have only flown two trainers, 40 size club trainer (don't know what it is) and my 40 size Kadet Senior, I flew both in fairly high wind.
From that experience and talking to others I would go out on a limb and say that any 40 size or larger glow engine trainer will handle fairly high wind conditions. Ground handling in cross wind can be tricky but if you can take off and land into the wind you should have no problems.
Stay away from small electric planes if you want to fly in the wind.
