Here's a question I haven't found an answer to yet:
If you're using proper cross-wind correction during taxiing, how much of
a cross-wind can a 152 take? What personal limits do you have?

The first limit you're likely to hit is the ability of the rudder & steering to
allow you to turn away from the wind. I have maneuvered a Cessna 150 in a 25
knot wind with no problems on the ground. Since it was straight across the
runway, getting the plane down in the first place was an experience I would not
care to repeat often, but she did well after slowing to taxi speed.

With the Maule, I have had to turn 270 degrees into the wind to make a 90 degree
turn to downwind. Wind was something over 15 knots at the time. The highest wind
I've taxied that plane in was gusting at 28.

Wind can be fun, though. Last Sunday, it was 11 knots, pretty much down the
runway. The tailwheel was up by the time I reached the numbers, and I rotated
just after the displaced threshhold. You could hear the jaws dropping in the
Mooney waiting behind me. Almost as good as if I had the big engine.
