Why would you even go up knowing the wind was that high?

Wow, that pilot did a great job dealing with the adverse weather conditions. He landed that thing like a pro! Scary stuff for a novice.

I thought u were going to touch down like a helicopter. That's scary weather

What does 'cutting the mags' at 7:15 mean?

First Solo Flight ? These are what I call questionable conditions..... looks like the wind just about has you parked in the air, so like you said probably 30 mph or so.. definitely some gusts and rotor to deal with at landing. These are more likely no fly conditions than first solo conditions...IMO

ABSOLUTELY THE MOST FUN ONE CAN HAVE WITH YOUR SHOES ON!

looks fun, with lots of beautiful land below
