Autopilot ILS in storms and gusty wind

You mention flying IN thunderstorms, is it really wise, lol?

 

Some storms are level 1 or 2...people would fly into these.  3 sometimes.  4 and 5 serious, serious evaluation of the conditions.  But it was never cut and dried.  People evaluated the situation visually and with radar if they had it.  Sometimes pilots elected to hold, sometimes ATC kept them away.  The point was to understand how an ILS did in tough wind.
