For those who didn't understand the meaning of the thread, there was quite significative weather, wind winds gusting to 53 knot. Nice to test RWW in FSX , or other sim with it available....  now moving west to ETHN

Kinda to add to the OP

 

Not sure if you guys know of this, but sometimes when I am in a certain mood, I go to www.badbadweather.com they have actual weather reports for places all over the world that have the "best" IMC weather to fly in for different types of conditions. Check it out.

I just bookmarked that site William...thanks.  I went straight for the tornado symbol or "gusts" and this little spot in Wyoming looks like a challenge:

It's not your bandwidth so why worry about who makes what thread?

 

I swear, I've watched so many with poor attitudes show up here since I joined going on 10 years ago and ridicule those who make threads that they don't see value in.

 

With that being said, if I wasn't on a 48-hour shift, I'd gladly play in those winds. That's pretty intense.

From the OP's message:

 

"26011G43KT"

 

That's real wind gusts- 11 knots gusting to 43, a difference of 32 knots. Try and land manually with variation in wind speed- especially in a C172 with an approach speed of around 70 knots,32 knots is almost one-half of the landing speed.....

 

I might clip this into a GLOB file for OPUS and try it.. Thanks jc....
