    I love how the editor put question marks for some of the subtitles cuz he had no idea what they were saying due to the wind 😂

    This was great, a fun challenge! How about a 15 to 18 mph day, get a tail dragger and a tricycle gear plane then do some take offs and landings on the runway safely. It's a realistic challenge and we can always pick up some pointers. Lots of guys stay home if the wind is over 7mph,..... so sad.

    We fly slope gliders in 60 mph wind (when on the rare occasion we get winds this big) at point Fermin, San Pedro, Ca
    Keep in mind these are custom built 48 to 60” wing span planes that weigh up to six Lbs - epic!! Now back to the video / love the Flight Test crew!

    Flying in high wind with the right plane if fun.
    We used to fly in 45-60mph winds all the time with big .40 and .60 nitro trainers. It was a lot of fun landing backwards, flying inverted so slow that you could come down a touch the tail in the grass without fear.
    I miss those days, honestly. It sucks that the .40 square body cheap nitro trainers are no more.

    I've flown a 2s piper cub in 40 mph winds gusting to 50 odds, it was fabulous, my dad couldn't believe it, I hand launched into the wind full throttle. I flew for about 6 mins on a 1300 mah, upwind legs where soooooo long as its top speed was roughly 45mph, downwind wow. I still have it, it's been stuck in a tree and everything. I landed it in my back garden almost stationary ground speed wise. Its up in the garage rafters, I'm gonna get it back out give it a fly soon, is been hibernating for 6 odd years
