Flew up to San Luis Obispo (SBP) from Chino on Saturday to have lunch with my newly employed son Mike (He graduated in December from Cal Poly SLO) and give a buddy of his a ride in the -8heh. It was a beautiful day but there was a ton of wind at altitude. On the way up, the wind at 8500 was 335 @ 35. Lots of bumps until passing the San Marcos VOR then pretty smooth on into SBP. Not many bumps on the way home, but north of Santa Barbara the winds at 9500 were between 50 - 53 kts. Unfortunately is was more crosswind than tail wind. The highest ground speed I saw was 205 kts. After the turn at RZS, I had a 15 deg crab to stay on course to Chino with a crosswind component of 46 kts. As a note, the ramp around the tower at SBP is all tore up and there is a 2 hour max parking limit at the resturant. As usual lunch at the airport cafe was great. Lots of airline traffic too. All in all, still a nice day to fly.
