Thanks for the advice Dave, I will practice the half Cuban roll, and I do have a sim, Areofly, just need to dedicate a little time each day to it rather than the occasional dabble, I'll also have to resort to the manual to see if I can slow it down :pinch: I did dialed up the wind before, that was interesting :S

Chris, as I found out at the weekend the only way to learn to fly in a cross wind is to fly in one, spent three whole flights just doing stall turns and think I managed to get one (almost) right. The Sim has its uses but is no substitute for the real thing.
I am sure if Jon is at the field on the next windy day he will give you some pointers, after that it's just practice, practice and then practice some more :)

Or fly an Impressivo - who needs a rudder when you're flying over 100mph
