Default Wow this is funny, my friend got weathered...

Well he got weathered on a solo XC because of a 5 knot crosswind. He was goin through RIddles Stage 1 Check because he got his private at home. he has 65 hours in a 152 and landed on a 60 ft wide runway. Lol and Riddle wont let him fly a XC with a five know x-wind. I heard and was like bull##### but turns out to be true.
