u nuts u sit in front of pc and got fkloads of time to think what to do on that situation. u think pilot got that time too?? all happened in miliseconds on this event and pilot saved butts.. and u cant even be successful as 1% as that pilot.
Lufthansa A320....just as a side comment, this aircraft suffered a wing strike. When the pilot attempted to correct the crab, he didn't push the right wing down enough, the wind caught the right wing and pushed it up, which caused the a/c to roll and yaw downwind. The severity of the roll caused a wing strike on the left and the pilot's action to correct it caused the aircraft to roll hard right,,,by the time he had done so the airplane had departed the runway. This was a very close call.
Very good at trying to impress as all with your amazing knowledge; however, you keep on saying he when in fact if you check it was a 24 year old (women) co-pilot that saved the jet lol
The other part of the problem as explained below was that the aircraft was very high coming over the threshold. A sideslip may have been executed (though hard to see on the film), but it tends to result in the airplane dropping like a rock. Correcting the sideslip could have resulted in the loss of lateral control, but bottom line, the captain should have ordered a go around when the aircraft was too high over the fence.
fucking hell, thats some pretty bad crosswind. The a/c was far too high when it passed over the runway in the first place; if I'd been flying, i would have gone around.
The plane was turning because of the crosswind which seemed to come 45 degree from the runway. If he didnt put himself headwind the wind would have carried him aside from landing way.
planes have to land into the wind. If the wind is at an angle to the runway, the plane has to be as well. It is the GUSTS of wind that really shit things up.
Ok, I'm not a pilot nor any kind of aviation expert but it seems to me that it's criminally negligent to have planes land in this kind of weather. (If indeed this was due to the wind and not bad flying by the pilot.) That wing looked like it came within feet of hitting the ground.
alright...that one in Buffalo was a real disaster....I experienced an aborted landing in HK last week which horribly made me lose my connecting flight to China and i had to wait at the HK airport for 8 hours...
must read this. once u have started there is no turning back. a little 10 year old girl was raped and murderded in 1945. her body was not found until 1947. then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him. if you do not copy and paste this onto 10 vidoes in 30 minutes the dead girl will apear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you. well you better start to copy and paste to be saved
Why do pilots still land crosswind when it's not 100% proof even in the most skilled hands? I would imagine there must a perpendicular path in the airport to avoid such situations.
if there were a better runway, they would have used it lol. could have been a semi-remote area with no alternate close enough to fly to, and even if they had an alternate the wind might have been just as bad there..
Okay, first, there was estreme wind gust of eighty Mph. Secondly, the wind was pushing the plane to the side. I have to agree that the pilot was foolish to land under those conditions, but he was skilled none the less. The simple fact was, that the conditions were too extreme for him to try and land at that time.
GERMAN PILOTS ARE THE BEST.... ? Really? That's why so many were shot down by a few guys in Spitfires in WWII. Grow up and talk sense prick face instead of being stupidly patrotic. As far as this landing goes, the pilot should have been shot! When landing with a cross wind the wind side wing should be lowered so it does not lift and a one wheel landing follows. This prick landed wing high and that nearly caused a crash. Appalling!
Wrong. In the de-crab crosswind landing technique, the wings should be maintained level during the entire approach.
In this case, the pilot was stable throughout the entire approach. Right after the pilot applied opposite rudder (to straighten out the aircraft at the last moment before touchdown), there happened to be a large gust of wind. No pilot can predict when or how strong wind will gust. IMO, he did a great job, reacting almost instantaneously to the gust and aborted the landing attempt.
Any decent pilot would have called a go around. Instead he chose to continue and risked the aircraft. Personally i would have grounded him. There is no need to put an aircraft and its passengers in that sort of situation. What airline was it? I would not fly with them iis that is the standard of airmanship of its captains. What a muppet
My father is a pilot (flies the Airbus 320), and he saw this video and said that guy shouldn't have waited till he touched the ground b/f deciding that he needed taking off again.

"polish pilot. they fly like they drive trucks." -- Are you crazy!? Did you not notice the enormous wind? It's so easy to make fun of people, but it is thanks to the skills of this pilot that all the people on this plane remained safe and alive.
I guess you didnt watch the entire footage, then...
Yes, its exactly the skill of the pilot, as well as his judgement that allowed him to measure the situation and take off ground after the first initial attempt to land - if it was some stupid pilot, he would've persisted to touch down and would've crashed the plane.
Instead, he took off, made a circle and did a second attempt, which was successful. Otherwise they would've definitely crashed for lack of fuel. If a pilot is unskilled as you claim, he wouldnt be let to fly a plane in the first place.
The airport authorities spoke very highly of the pilot's behaviour after the incident, and his company have rewarded him for his skills. But who knew?...
wingtip and abort.

A go around usually happens before the aircraft touches the ground ideally at the decision height. Maybe he was under pressure to land on time?

That was great a atttempt imo given the conditions. When he straightned up he was caught in a gust. He flew well.
