Default RE: Let's talk about wind

Forecast calls for 5-10= good day of flying!

10-15=were flyin,but be carefull if it picks up while landing if its blowing across the runway

15-20=might get a couple flights in before 11 or noon,but then it gets scary

20= might as well stay home and not chance it


....this is from my standpoint as a new(but solo) flyer and what yahoo weather calls for. At 15mph the little windsock is almost straight. And the windspeed generally starts to pick up to what their calling for at 11 or 12 noon around here.
