Sorry. It was not my intent to distort anything. Kinda tough to do using only some quotes, I was my thought.
Also, MY OPENING line was....
"FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH" and that is what I meant - to show some contrast.
See it below.
Others are making their input known.....
With quotes too. <g>
Personally, I like what I see.
Pick and choose.
In using any method I like....
I like staying out of 45 mph crosswinds as my first choice!
Highly recommended. Shows good judgment.
Landing in extreme crosswinds is risk nobody needs.
Consider alternatives.
Success could be more chance than choice.
Nuff said.
