Nice smooth crosswind landing and Eastern West Virginia Regional (KMRB) at dusk in an Evektor EV-97 SportStar. This was the last landing of the day before I taxied to parking. Very evident in the video is the cross control to hold the runway centerline and flown right down the VASI to a smooth touchdown and rollout. The EV-97 is a great little airplane but has terrible brakes on it so the rollout is a little long for this type. These LSAs can be a bear sometimes to handle in crosswinds, but the landing gods smiled at me on this approach!
