I'm sure there are other outfly the wind tricks, feel free to chime in
with your favs.


Disregard the wind, fly low, enjoy the view.


Disregard the wind, and climb above the lowest cumulus clouds to get a
smoother ride and better visibility. Plus if you go above 3,000' AGL, you
have a WAY lower chance of encountering other traffic.
