Today started out beautifully with the weather just perfect for flying, only a "minor" wind problem..
the wind started to blow as I approach the airport, and by the time I got to the airport, the wind was gusting at 20knots, which was outside the limitation...so i had to wait until it dials down...
20 min passed, and the wind is same, but from a different direction which reduced the velocity of our crosswind, GREAT ! let's go!
today is perfect to practice some crosswind landings as the wind today as 12knots of wind contributes to our direct crosswind ( which is the limite).. so, yeah, it was pretty exciting.. I had to land the plane on its right tire and stay for about 5 sec until the plane lost lift and drops on both of its tires, that's something i need to work on more...
As for the manuevers, I did the steep turn perfectly according to my instructor, he said if I were to take a checkride, that steep turn will pass, great ! " Turn around a point" was fun. I asked him if he could demonstrate a 60 degree turn so that I can feel the "2 G", it wasn't like what I expected, feels like your face is going down towards your chest and your weight is just " HEAVY"...wow..
cool experience~ overall, today was pretty fun! had a lot done and good progress!!! keep up !!!
