Jesus..... Alright. I give up. You guys win.

Looks like our training department is victorious once again! :D

JJ's right. This thread has become ridiculous. Let's get back to more constructive and helpful posts. Now, does anyone know if its easier to land in a crosswind from the right, if your in the southern hemisphere or Northern Hemisphere? I have a SA SIBA trip coming up, and knowing that sure might come in handy down there, for runway selection. And, do you have to take ground effect into consideration when you land with one wing lower than the other? You know, like the lower wing would go into it earlier?

Why dont they just tie a string to the windshield wiper? That way you could tell what direction the wind was coming from. Of course the extra drag could hurt our fuel cents initiative.

If you tied a string to the windshield wiper you would also know if your V1 cut was coordinated. Did I just make fun of myself?

Rent a Piper Cub (with instructor, of course) on a windy day, spend about an hour (or two) doing touch and goes, and you'll quickly become one of the best crosswind pilots you've ever seen!

That's the truth, isn't it? Or, "tru dat" for you Memphians.

And, I think we could get an entire fleet of cubs for the cost of one simulator. The only problem is...It would be a new aircraft and I'm not sure the company would be willing to pay narrow body pay for it. Of course, we'd still have guys climbing over each other to be an LCA/FLEX on it, without a pay scale, just to get into those cushy jobs in the training dept.

They always win. And, they're always right. Just ask any of them! Teeheehee:p

There...
