When I first got my wings I was flying in whatever wind. Some days the plane would do about 5mph one way and like 60 the other. And landing in some of those crosswinds... forget it. But luckily we have a separate Heli runway we can always count on in bad crosswinds to the main runway. But learning in bad wind in a jerky trainer really helps when you move up. It makes you use rudder. About all I can do well is take off and land. Thats all I have worked on so far. Ill work on the fun stuff later when I have less of the dumb thumb syndrome.
