Crosswind landings

[bfrench]

Hi, Folks,

Although this is an aviation related video I thought that everyone might want to see it.

A friend of mine was at the final approach last week and caught these jumbos as they were doing crosswind approaches.

I think the last one was carrier rated because he did the landing with the tail hook down and didn't flare - if there had been arrestor cables he would have caught the third wire.

Cheers,
Bill French
