All dressed up and no place to go.

Today was a beautiful sunny and cool day... except, of course for wind gusts of 18knots.

The short of it is... we did the pre-flight and start-up procedures, rolled the engine up to 100%, did our final check for weather and found out that there was too much wind. Actually, Kristie thought that it would have just been a waste of time to try to learn hover control in such a wind. Why waste the money and time for her to have to keep me from floating off into the breeze.

I agreed.

We scrapped it and powered down.
