Crosswind Hangar Jet 
Pilot Institute
MARCH 28, 2025
A small Challenger 604 business jet flying at Flight Level 340 passed one thousand feet below an Airbus A380 flying the same route in the opposite direction. The vortices flipped the small jet upside down at least three to five times before the pilots managed to regain control. ATRs, Dash 8s, large business jets.

Carroll County Airport (4M1) is the closest airport to town center, although it does not offer jet-A fuel. 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. Downtown Downtown Eureka Springs really shines.

The rich can dream of jets and warbirds. You can see other Weick influences, such as the oil-damped tricycle landing gearall produced Cherokees are trikeswith a wide track to make crosswind landings more manageable. The rest of us fantasize about swinging a Piper Cherokee.

We hopped on a jet and flew out there and received 25 hours of training in the instructor’s Cessna 180 together. Maybe in another 22 years he’ll finally nail those crosswind landings if we’re lucky. They even landed on a street near Los Angeles Airport due to fog. His and my job is still a work in progress, I guess.

Lockwood Aviation’s maintenance hangar probably sees more Rotax-powered aircraft than many other shops in the country. Poke around the typical LSA maintenance hangar and you’ll see broken pieces. An LSA In Your Hangar With over 900 RV-12s in the field , I think the airplane has an advantage over other LSA models.

Centerline, centerline, centerline Air Facts Journal It was a beautiful May day as we grabbed the tow bar to pull the 1981 Cessna 182 out of the hangar. 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.

Once there, he put us in a slight right turn toward our first fuel stop 60 miles ahead, continuously fighting the stick as the gusting left crosswind did its best to push us off course. The monstrous cargo planes and nimble fighter jets soaring overhead could no doubt travel faster, but only the little Cub could offer a journey back in time.
