Hello David, CHassan gave some good advice. I would like to add one thing. Don't pick a marginal day just because you get too anxious. I like to make sure I am "comfortable". (not only excessive wind, but also, too many people flying, etc). I am sure some people just go for it.... and that's OK for some people. If you are on the cautious side like I am..... don't pressure yourself, or be teased into doing something you don't feel comfortable with. Now after saying that: I did something kind of dumb this spring....... but I just had that "comfortable feeling" for this maiden (even though most times I would NOT have flown). I built 2 kits this winter... a 4*120 and and LT-25. I took up the LT-25 on it's maiden flight as my FIRST flight in 2003. Cobwebs on my thumbs and all!! Not only that..... but the wind was gusting 10 to 15 mph, mostly quartering or crosswind. It was a shakey flight but I got it down without damage. It was not a pretty flight. Good luck..lownslo.
