How to handle 20Kt Crosswinds in the J3 Cub (and how I Stopped myself from potentially Groundlooping

The Cub only weighs 750-ish lbs so any amount of wind could have a big impact on flying the J-3. As long as you are proactive with your flight control input it isn't too overwhelming. Also a good reminder then when the tail stops flying, you better get the tailwheel down or you may find yourself headed for the weeds because you don't have tailwheel steering, and you don't have enough airflow over the Rudder to counteract the weathervaning.
