Extreme Crosswind Landing-amazing Pilot!!!

Learn crosswind landing techniques for better airline experiences

or when the left wing was dragging on the runway. (two pilots looking for jobs most likly)

Wow that was the worst attempt at a landing I've ever seen, that's not too strong a wind to have that much trouble

I'm no pilot, but to my eye a better conclusion would be "the reckless pilot almost killed more than 100 people." I'm sure that's how the airline that fired this guy felt.

He wasn't set up properly to land, so he should have gone around without pounding into the runway. He could always try again or go to another airport. An airliner should almost always land with enough fuel to do either of those.

Instead, to avoid admitting they he couldn't safely land the plane on his first try, he tried to land it anyway. The fact he didn't dig his left wing into the ground hard enough to turn that plane into a burning clump of debris tumbling down the runway was nothing more than luck, not talent. If he was an even worse pilot, he might not have gotten back into the air, but a good pilot would not have attempted the landing, flown a better approach in unfavorable conditions or gone around safely when he realized that he wasn't oriented correctly to land.

I'll leave it to others (pilots) to describe exactly what this guy did wrong to get himself in such an untenable position, but the main point is that he should never have touched his wheels to the runway under these circumstances.

THE VOICE OF REASON! :)

the landing...not funny. pilot wannabes talking about something they no NOTHING about? PRICELESS!!

I think you're the only one that finds that funny.

that is what BossGotheric was talking about if that were you flying that plane you would crash it soon as you recongise a crosswind

must of been some shitty pants on there

Thrust levers are a big eraser: do over

They also got slow developed sink rate and forgot that when you input rudder in a swept wing aircraft it induces roll moment

why do people act like its easy to fly a plane? people must of been pretty scared on that plane when it had to re-take off.

Theres something called a Retard and your one of them.

Im a pilot for united and this stuff us hard. i mean tying to land with 35mph winds coming at you? This pilot is very talented. I can also land in this kind of weather, very difficult though.

"In wind conditions like that, wouldn't be it more professional to cancel the whole landing altogether? I mean, even with expertise and skill, things like that can fail miserably and when having 150 passengers or so, I'd consider it being irresponsible to take the risk."

You have to land *eventually*. Can't stay up in the air to wait for your fuel to run out now can you...

Hell F**king yes that were some awesome manuevres there, almost makes me feel proud
