Rough River Kentucky fly-in is over and it's time to head back home to Chicago Aurora and get to the kids, Jaime and work. This was a nice VFR (visual flight rules) flight back home and was smooth until I descended into the Chicago area. The winds were gusting over 30 knots with a crosswind. Required a lot of yoke movement on short final but I was able to find the runway. :) Also follow me on: Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/310Pilot Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/310_pilot/ Website/Store - https://www.310pilot.net Headsets by: https://www.lightspeedaviation.com/product/zulu-3-anr-headset/?utm_source=310pilot&utm_medium=site Maintenance by: TAS Aviation; 419.658.4444; https://tas-aviation.com For more information on the autopilot: https://stec3100.genesys-aerosystems.com/310pilot/ Music by: https://soundcloud.com/davidhydemusic/hip-hop-rap-beat-piano-and https://soundcloud.com/davidhydemusic/piano-rock-instrumental This video is for entertainment purposes only and is not intended as instruction in any way.

@colinrasmussen94703 years ago I had a baron, thought about getting a cirrus until my wife said why would you trade an engine for a parachute and 2 fewer seats. So now i have a cessna 340a. 4

@romiemiller78763 years ago Chicago is aptly nicknamed the windy city. And, it' s the only city i know where the wind blows down all four sides of buildings the same. And it' s cold in winter.
