Spotted this on the BBC website, doesnt look like wind to me... More pilot error and too much heavy footed on the brakes...

Ouch ! That looked a nice aeroplane when it initially landed :-(

Looks more like the pilot was trying not to let a wind pass, and thus pushing the brakes a bit too hard in the process. :think: :fart:

It looked awfully fast to me , and there were the obvious beginnings of a ground loop just before someone stabbed the brakes really hard
