a mighty large airliner piloted by someone with big brass balls and a deft handle on the steering yoke, landed about 30 degrees off the straight because of hurricane winds causing a 40-50 knot crosswind, at Heathrow, London, this past weekend..... Co-Pilot: landing is impossible / Pilot: hold my beer



great day to be a camera man recording all the airliners coming down sideways!


Saturday 15th Feburary 2020 airbus A380 from Abu Dhabi

Check out these airliners getting sideways taking off from Gatwick, same storm, next day



some 30-35 knot crosswinds, and look at the wings flex at 2:24
