2 points here. last flight i went on in dehavilland beaver and a group of other tail draggers. our mission was the "$100 dollar omelette" at payson airport. while enroute pilot amigo radioed payson for conditions. 25-35 knot winds. we scrubbed payson and headed for sedona(damn, what an ugly place-LOL). reason he stated that some in flight group didnt like such high winds for landings.
yesterdays citation on final had his A$$ end out so far from straight line approach it was a sight! at last second put it straight and touched down. he was good. watch boatloads of landings and takeoffs daily. you get good at noting technique. im not a pilot, my dad was. i am lucky enough to walk away from dornier do-27 plane crash. only reason i would get lic. is to scout elk/caribou or run away to south pacific and work with seaplane biz. i RUN from experimentals..............learned my lesson.
