LOL...I did something similar to that with the A2A Cub at Courchevel in a 27 knot wind at 90° to the runway during beta testing.

I even managed to take-off and land on the helipads.

It's a lot of fun. :lol:

And it also shows the importance of proper fuel management for the 14 hour trip to the town 30 miles upwind. :D
