Weather conditions on Groundhog Day were better than the week prior, characterized by a high ceiling and no thin screen of clouds hiding the ground from view. In the descent, wind direction rotated counterclockwise until it became a direct southerly crosswind. Same course, same altitude, same frequency handoffs as the week prior.

The more challenging the flight conditions–low ceilings, rain, crosswinds, high density, etc–the higher the anxiety level. A calm landing differs from a headwind landing versus a crosswind landing. Results from a crosswind landing. The level of anxiety reaches a new level of bizarre.

One morning, I encouraged a student to fly in a crosswind that I knew he was capable of handling, even though I could sense his reluctance. or “Notice that the ceiling has dropped since we began, so we’ll being staying close to base or heading back in.” The important thing is to never waste an opportunity to learn.

We may be the best pilot ever born, but we can’t force a tired Skyhawk to climb above its genuine absolute ceiling, undefined by any performance chart. But the reported ceiling was only 400 feet at the appointed hour. All three sets of limitations will combine to affect the outcome of our flight.

I was intrigued by what appeared to be a grass crosswind runway at North Bass Island, but no such runway is listed in official publications. Though I am no geologist, I found myself biting my tongue whenever the tour guide -- who otherwise did a fine job -- referred to the ceiling-bound mineral formations as "stalagtites".

Additionally, the main landing gear can pivot up to 20 degrees, significantly improving crosswind landing capabilities. This impressive power plant allows the B-52H to achieve a maximum speed of 1,000 km/h and a service ceiling of 15,151 meters.

Once youre used to those key differences, flying and landing a Stearman (without much crosswind, wink wink) is just as enjoyable, if not more, than a Cub.

The weather was excellent, although too much of a blustery crosswind for the Edwardians. The TG-3A was once suspended from the ceiling in the American Air Museum at Duxford, but was removed from display a few years ago and has now been restored to fly by the Gliding Heritage Center team.
