Island runway racing in a hurricane

[Pds314]

This challenge requires Kerbalwind and all of its dependencies. Use CKAN if you want to make it super easy.

Mods are allowed if they are reasonably balanced compared to stock values or compared to real life. Just don't use non-FAR wing surfaces because those won't be affected correctly.

The mission is simple. Go to the island runway, land, and return to the KSC runway.

However, you must attempt this with the following KerbalWind settings:

Enabled: yes

Median: 40.0.

Gust duration: 1.0.

Gust intensity: 5.0.

Extreme weather: yes.

Many light aircraft can be simply blasted off the runway or into the air under these conditions. Even a heavier plane will blow around trying to take off.

Best attempt so far: I almost landed it...

It was at this moment I realized I did not know how to fly my hastily constructed 115 meter long, 1200 tonne cargo jet that had never flown before...


And this moment I realized I did not know how to land it.

Wind normally: 30-60 m/s.
Wind literally the second you're trying to land:
