Flown into and out of COI several times. Winds there are no joke and can easily be more than a C172 (or many GA aircraft) can handle. Caution advised at all times!

Yep been there, too. When I was working on my PPL my instructor took me into COI for that very reason plus approach over water. Good training.

It's not good to fly a small plane that has the words "BUZZ" on the doors. Just sayin'
