If anyone is interested in seeing the crabbed landing technique that Colin wrote about, as executed by the airlines, email me off net and I'll send you a video that Randy "Fine Whine" Stein just sent me. It's a video of the crosswind landing tests of a Boeing 777 and is about 4MB, so don't ask for it if you don't have a fast connection.
You will not believe the crab angle they put this baby in, all the way to touchdown. Oscar Zuniga San Antonio, TX mailto: taildr...@hotmail.com website at http://www.flysquirrel.net
