That sounds better than this morning. I was told by SMC that crosswind was mean 35 gusting to 45 knots and runway damp - actually wind was to 48 knots but "only" up to 45 was actual crosswind!!! If it wasnt for the duststorm that was raised, I could have seen the towering equipment off the end of 07 that is stopping any operations across the field.

Only a few brave souls have been flying around Melb this weekend. Was going to go Tassie - forecast was 60+ knots at ground level down south. You wouldn't even venture out in your RV10 Jaba.

Ahhh, you can't really blame anyone for wanting to avoid a 35G45 X-wind.
Esp, if it's more than the a/c can handle.

So, up to 42kts X wind on 16/34. I guess that's only 17kts over the X wind limit of most jets on a wet runway!! (Latest Atis has the runway as wet)
