It would be interesting to hear what others would have done on the
first landing. Go around. It's almost always the safer decision. But maybe I'm influenced by a similar situation I experienced the day before yesterday...crosswind landing on RWY31 with winds 24013G23KT. I used full flaps (mistake) and ballooned a little on touchdown when suddenly the full 23 knots hit and turned the nose about 20 degrees into the wind. As I was already almost out of airspeed, I didn't try to force it back to runway direction with the rudder but did a go around. Strangely enough, the one thing I remember most from this moment is the thought "This is going to get expensive..." as I don't know what I might have hit if I had left the runway. From now on until I have refreshed my crosswind skills with a CFI on board, my personal limits for gusting crosswind are going to be a lot lower. |
