Have you ever felt a 75 kt gust? I wouldn't untie and taxi a light airplane in those conditions much less fly one. And yes I have extensive Ak bush flying time much of it on the North Slope.
I couldn't take a leak without wetting the front side of my pants in a 75kt gust... That's how I determine my personal limits. Can I take take a leak cleanly? No, okay divert.
