I was to go with a friend as I had not flown with him since he getting
his PPL

Winds were above his Xwind limits so I told him grab a CFI to
experience what I considered rather mild crosswinds. I told him I
wouldn't be comfortable from the right seat and I am not a CFI but
today was certainly a flyable day. So he called his brother who is a
CFI.

It would be interesting to hear what others would have done on the
first landing.

My "Howard Cosell" in the action commentary is in the video.


First of all, if I were landing in a strong crosswind, I would NOT use
full flaps! They aggravate weathervaning and potential loss of control.

I would also carry an extra 10 mph to add controllability.
