Zrh-gva, Terrible..... Options

[Im tha king]

Well, I just completed a flight from ZRH to GVA with my Mooney M20. My take-off was a little rough at ZRH, but had no problem. A small crosswind about 5 knots kicked up and I flew towards the left. Then I stabilized my flight and was on course. I asked for weather conditions in GVA and well, heavy storms and gusts up to 24 knots. Ouch! Especially, because I was flying on a general avaition aircraft. On my rapid decent to Geneva, a strong gust threw me off course. I literally turned my yoke to the right the whole way through until I touched ground. Anyways, on approach the conditions went for the worst, a 30 knot crosswind blew from the left and threw me to the very edge of the runway. My position was perfect, but I was still struggling. I pushed my throttle to the max and ruddered to the right to fight the wind. Just when my forward gear touched the ground, the wind blew the plane up. I pushed the yoke forward and then struggled to keep my plane down, my forward gear touched the ground first with a thump, then....my wife called me for dinner!

I'd like to show you pictures, but my daughter deleted it...somehow......uh...weird...

That’s a shame, try next time. You should try continuous screenshots or even pause the game to take a screenshot then minimize it.

[Going_around_aga...]

Shouldve maybe proceeded with a Go-around

Maybe even consider landing at an alternate airport.

Sure sounds like an adventure

Harr...Well the weather spanned to far. Overcast from Switzerland to the northwest of France. The conditions were all bad. Crosswinds at Zurich -- It got worse.

Squidie...as I said at the bottom, uh...my daughter deleted the pictures somehow. Maybe she restarted the computer.
