Are not easy. And they are trained for just this occurrence, lucky we don't have to worry about having the lives of the passengers in our hands. He made a good decision to get back up.

Instead of trying to land a plane, pilot should have performed a go-around as soon as wind blown him off the middle of the runway for the first time. Trying to land a plane after this is very risky, even reckless. Go-around is a standard procedure in such weather conditions and there's nothing wrong with it. Pilot eventually performed it, but after all this risk...

Good Flying, as opposed to trying to land that one. Heavy crosswinds, almost ow. Great job saving that landing for later.

the pilot's mistake..whoever was doing the landin should hve flared the aircraft first then apply the rudders...on top of tht the pilot pulled to much on the stick tht caused the wind to hit the ground.

my dad, who is a pilot, has been through some tuff crap. where he flies, which is basically everywhere, some winds are unbelievably strong.

Hats off to the pilots.

At this moment of approch it is very difficult to pull up again ... raise flaps, throtle etc... he had to wait for the right moment .. when the plane is on a straight position, because doing this on a 3/4 position in crosswinds at this height means crash. Good job ! 5 stars to the pilot and 5 for posting. Thanks

Its just amazing............ This Pilot
By Highland Laddie 1204619291 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove7542826 - 1
he adds power, puts the gear up and later raises the flaps..
no big deal to do.. it was the decision to do it that was the wise move..
dont know what you mean about a 3/4 position meaning crash... been a pilot for 20 years and never heard that phrase before...
it is quartering head wind and I'm guessing that he's implying that it is 3/4 of the way to a 90 degree cross wind

flying into minneapolis/st paul during a thunderstorm. the side of the plane i was on you could actually see down the runway we were suppossed to be landing on. i fly a lot so i wasn't scared right away, but then i saw an old flight attendant who looked like she just pissed herself, that got me a little anxious. we bounced a few times on landing but everything ended ok.

get 'caught' in a cross wind. You know they are there. You simply need to prepare your approach properly.
By Jeff in Lodi Wi 1204595874 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove- 0
- hmmm
well considering there are such things as windshear and microbursts..you can be unaware of such winds...and also you can prepare as much as possible for an approach and still have to go around..these pilots are prob. more experienced than you are so i suggest if your going to make a comment about a pilot please research a little more or make a comment that makes sense like...hmm i wonder if that wind exceeded the x-wind limitation prior to arriving at that airport.
By hybypass 1204601505 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove8166300 - 1

I would have thought that this Airport would have closed the Approach for all aircraft........ There must be a thing called safety first?? As you have mentioned the x-wind limitation.
