PPL Lessons - First Gusty Crosswind Landing

Today was the first day we encountered stronger winds. We took off with winds being about 4 knots - gusting 12, but later in this short clip, the winds picked up all the way to 11 knots, gusting 18.

This is my second full lesson on circuits, landings, and takeoffs, and a first for significant crosswinds.

Also, I am completely flying the plane by myself, you can see my instructor lightly holding the controls, this is done so if I add too much forward/backpressure he has room to correct it quickly, which in this case I didn't do!

More videos to come on my PPL journey soon!
