X-Wind #1
What would you say, if we landed the 757 at its max x-wind component: 40kt?! This pictorial will demonstrate how it's done. Starting at 800AGL. ![]() By Tero Partanen | ||

X-Wind #9
20ft. A little on the right from the centerline. Now it's time to start pulling the 2 additional degrees for flare. ![]() By Tero Partanen | ||

X-Wind #11
5ft. The aircraft needs to be banked a bit to the right to land in a small slideslip, because of the heavy wind. The nose is getting towards rwy heading. ![]() By Tero Partanen | ||

X-Wind #14
Touchdown! The right main gear touches down, with nose pointed only 1 degree off the centerline. Flare angle still the same. Perfect landing. ;) ![]() By Tero Partanen | ||
