Almost got pushed off the runway completely there. 10 gusting to 18 as I recall. I remember pulling out the e6b app on the phone to do the calculation after getting the weather, which means there is a thoughtful contemplation about the winds. don't remember the crosswind component. The runway is an old army one so they only paint part of the much larger runway surface. That is the reason for the really long displaced threshold. so I still had a good deal of unpainted old runway off to the side to deal with or I would have gone around.

Ok that makes much more sense for continuing the landing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
