Default RE: Flying in strong Winds

One issue not raised is turbulence. This can be a very field specific issue. At one field I used, a north wind was a trouble due to the wind tumbling over the trees just off the field. A south wind was no problem as the field was quite clear in that direction. I have fun flying in the wind (learned to fly in Kansas). I do get a little bugged by strong turbulence.

Only fly when it is fun!
