I just wanted to open a discussion regarding other's personal weather minimums for VFR flights. I recently received my PPL ASEL certificate in July and most of the days that I have flown have been very nice days. Yesterday though I got caught a bit off guard and it prompted me to set a few minimums for myself. [snip] During training, I had to skip landing at a destination during a solo cross-country trip because of winds. The wind was 20kts, gusts to 29kts, but it was almost straight down the runway so the cross-wind component was probably within my limits. But the reason I passed on the landing was that I was not comfortable with taxiing in that kind of wind. 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? DanH |
