That is what the anemometer read in the blown out terminal building ! Perhaps it was reading wrong, maybe it was only 5 mph but it felt like a little more ? I have 1 other witness in the plane and about 13 on the ground, one with his face cut open due to the glass window blowing in ! ( I paid for the beer BTW ) To anyone who does not believe me, you can Kiss my Arse !
How did you get yourself into a situation in a light airplane when the winds were gusting to 95 mph????
THAT is a longer story, but it started out delivering a plane ( Sale) to Calexico on the Mexican border. I thought i told this story in the past, perhaps you or me or both of us are suffering from memory issues ? :D
