I've never seen winds at 25 knots that were not gusty though.

On the rare occasions I see them steady, they're in coastal or island
locations.

I do
know a CFI who took off in a C-152, then landed back on the numbers w/
o ever changing heading (and he didn't fly around the earth first).

That's funny. I would have loved to have seen it. We used to do that
with r/c's, and I've heard of it done full scale, but I've never been
lucky enough to witness it.
