Bill and Matt are both right. Practicing in the wind is excellent 
preparation for the Nats because at the Nats you will fly as long as 
the rulebook says it is ok. Take a look, the rulebook allows flying in 
severe winds and other conditions. Every year we've had at least one 
session in extreme conditions of one kind or another.
