Unfortunately, the government and its money-schlepping agency, the IR of S, strongly believes in the traditional calendar, so today, I find myself rummaging through my hangar’s detritus and junk in search of deductible items and a clue on how to end this year of flying on a high note. My gratitude goes out to you, my readers.

The only thing that caught my attention was a 90 degree crosswind coming from the east that was gusting to 11 or 12 knots. My left crosswind became left downwind very quickly.

As at higher altitudes, the vortex movement near the ground is affected by crosswinds. Crosswinds can push the downwind vortex into your approach path. That makes it harder for the aircraft to fit into hangars and airport gates. This lateral movement takes place at a speed of about two or three knots.

An additional point of emphasis for pilots flying in is that the runway sits in an east-west orientation and often has a crosswind, caused by north-blowing winds. While well maintained, the surface has a slight slope, and as a result there is no line of sight between the two ends. Downtown Downtown Eureka Springs really shines.

He went to the hangar and did a pre-flight walkaround of the 172, including checking the fuel. Satisfied, he pulled the 172 out of the hangar and started the engine. The pilot applied some aileron to compensate for the crosswind and then applied full power. He taxied the aircraft to the fuel pump, testing the brakes on the way.
