  • its a simulator...

  • HOw much bank can an aircraft actually land with if using the one wheel touch down xwind landing method before the wing or engine strikes the ground? WOuld anythign over 5 degrees touch the ground?

  • didn't look like much of crab, you say 35k ? unless you started correcting by the marker, looks pretty straight ahead. I hate simulators

  • @longtalker yes,this is a simulator

  • This is on a simulator, right?

  • Do you fly for FedEX? I didn't know they used 737NG's. Was this just a session for the sake of it are is it a part of sim training for an airline job you received?

  • @azworx I did, on final. You do not want to crab on touch down at all in most airplanes, but in the 737 when you start to get up to the 35 kt crosswinds, you cannot take out all of the crab or sidedrift out or you'll touch the upwind engine on the ground. Hence my slight drift as I'm about to touchdown.

  • Nice landing!

  • @krogen42hull198 Alright, so standard flaps setting, as far as I remember what a Boeing guy has told me! ^^
