Westerly winds over the Rockies in Canada can be strong some times. My Turbo Arrow III seemed quite happy with it all. Take note of the crosswinds on the Aspen.
I had a 67 kt crosswind on a x-country a few years back. To maintain my track, I was holding about 46 degrees correction. I flew more looking out the passenger window than the windshield, and it was a blast! But wow, 107 kt is a whole different level! You must have been flying out of the cargo window!

I am happy I did not have to fly into that wind.
How well does your heat work, at -17 you needed lots of heat.

G5’S, G275, GNX375 Still can get lost.
The heater in the Turbo Arrow works extremely well. I have flown in -40 and it can keep the cabin toasty warm.

That's some serious x-wind!
