Crosswind landings at Dusseldorf airport, HD movie
Re: Crosswind landings at Dusseldorf airport, HD movie
Skilled pilots! Interesting to see how some are able to get the aircraft back in the direction of the runway just before the wheels touch the ground, while others keep it with an angle and have to straighten the situation while already on the ground.

Very interesting and amazing video.
There are different techniques for landing with crosswind. It's to the skilled pilot to make a safely landing by a gusty crosswind.
