August is coming

Here in margate, August marks the beggining of the windiest month of the year. pilots who have their licences have no trouble flying or landing in heavy winds but a new student may find it a bit rough up there as well as difficult to compensate for cross winds and may just get blown off course. Cross wind landings are tricky procedures in which the plane is touched down on one wheel first so that the wind does not blow you off the runway, even the most experienced pilots can come short with a cross wind landing.
