I'm in Eastern North Carolina and we fly year round. I enjoy flying in high winds. I maidened a new SPAD Swept Wing Canard this year. Because it was a new design for me it required a great deal of test flying to settle on the CG and the needed changes so it would do the knife edge. I was forced to test it in high winds. More than a few days I came home without a flight. This has been the windiest year in at least 10 years.
