I fully agree with you on "sometimes you have to handle conditions outside your comfort zone, no matter if you’re an airline captain or a sunday pilot". That's why I keep training! When wind is too strong for me I fly with an instructor. This was the case 2 flights ago. Wind was roughly at the crosswind limit of the DR221 and I had a much intersting flight with my instructor. But usually I don't do "shaker flights" with passengers, unless unforeseen weather, of course. (but I never fly very far from my base, quite unfortunately...) Thanks for linking to my blog.
