The new single, Anthem of the Working Man, by The 99%, is THE theme of the Occupy Wall Street movement. In the musical tradition of Simon & Garfunkel (The Boxer), Dylan (Like A Rolling Stone) and Barry McGuire (Eve of Destruction), it explores the widening gap between the ultra-rich and the rest of us. Catch it on YouTube!
TumblingDice66: You are correct. Most GA and VFR pilots are trained to land side on to the wind and correct at the last moment in rather harsh crosswinds. People here who simply have NFI about why these planes are landing this way, a little advice, LOOK IT UP!!
Isn't that intentional on the part of the pilot to keep the plane turned into the wind until the last second? It looked like skillful management of difficult conditions to me rather than a screwup.
It looked like a rough landing to me lol. And it does not matter where you came from to be a good pilot LMFAO. If anything the pilot trained in a low-wing aircraft, because crosswinds are murder with those planes. :>
Absolutely! Last time I was flying to the caribbean for vacation, the dumb pilot nearly crashed into the sea, on final approach to an aircraf carrier. But it was like landing on a postage stamp with all that huge Boing 747... ^^

Great job with this vid. One of the best cross wind landings I've seen in here.

He was turned to the left a little so that the wind didn't blow him too far to the right of the runway

that's called crabbing by the way - a technique to deal with strong headwinds from one side or the other

I bet he will definitely crash into the sea if he tries to land on a Aircraft Carrier with this lack of accuracy in landing.

cross wind going on a angle makes it will turn in to the wind and still going straight that is why it looked sideways
