Wow, flight home was interesting. Took off a 4pm from New Braunfels, winds 20kts gustings to 28. No problem, wife constantly asking is this okay? 60 miles out of Conroe, ceiling starts to narrow down to 1500, really bumping, now wife is really asking "what is the meaning of life?". On final @ Conroe winds 22kts, gusting to 30. stuck the landing, "Life is Good". Pays to have a great instuctor.
I was really glad my instructors had worked me hard in wind & x wind, but this is all I wanted. It is very different when your instructor is not sitting next to you. It was Susan's first trip, I kept talking with her to reassure her, but she hasn't spent much time in light planes, come to think of it, I haven't either.
