If you managed to get a wing strike, that plane would probably be, um, shall we say, "out of service."<br /><br />I wonder how close they were to their maximum crosswind component on that landing. Sometimes what looks really bad to an outsider isn't as bad as you'd think. Sometimes what doesn't look too dangerous is really bad. Intuition isn't your friend here, but that's clearly a scary landing looked at from outside.<br /><br />FormerFlyerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-24376111226710551542013-12-18T16:24:01.405-06:002013-12-18T16:24:01.405-06:00Somebody buy that poor pilot a drink and a new pai...Somebody buy that poor pilot a drink and a new pair of underwear! <br /><br />I'd fly with that guy any time.
