Nice one there Keith.

But I think "ultimate" is a matter of taste ;-)

Personally I would prefer another aircraft....

Named "A crazy landing" but in my opinion the Pilot does a very good crab-landing...

See for your-self:

I did say 'possibly', Dan

Yes you did ;-) I was only joking.

In that "crazy landing" the wind sock is displayed near the beggining and it looks to be about 1/3-3/4 elevated and nearly 90 degries to the runway... Slight chance of crosswind there i would say...
