I did a few touch and gos in my KR with about a 10 MPH gusting crosswind. It was not fun, but it was doable. I probably only had about 25 hours in the plane at the time.

I'm just wondering if he's a bit rusty on tail draggers ,as I never had any problems. What is the consensus on crosswind limitations for a standard tail dragger KR2?
