In a similar vein, I've got a mate who, when the wind is high enough and
from the right direction, will land our Taylorcaft ACROSS the runway. He
often has enough room to take back off again from the same point without
reversing. Mind you, the Tcraft stalls at about 35 mph.

What is fun is using that same set of conditions, and landing with
virtually zero ground roll. I've won more than a few beers that I could
land and stop short within the wingspan of the airplane (C150-172).
