Default RE: Judging to much wind?

Unless you feel the wind is too strong, or blowing in the wrong direction, throttle up and fly away! As others have said, ther is no "magic" number as to what is too much or too little wind to fly. This past weekend we had Ike blowing thought MO producing some gusts that probably topped 30+ mph, yet several of of taxied out and had a great time. If your not comfortable with the conditions, it is probably best to leave it grounded and just watch. You can bet no matter how strong it's blowing, there will be a few of us idiots out there giving it a ry.....
