Classic British Flight Sim

Just found this via twitter if anyone's interested, bit of tricky crosswind landing footage

"The challenge of landing a turboprop with strong winds

I would have thought a go around was in order but then I'm only a PC Pilot

Thanks for sharing the video,

Roger.

I think he or she did rather well there.

Any news on what the passengers thought about it?

Two (rhetorical) questions

1) what is the crosswind limit for the aircraft and was that within the limit?

2) Surely with a high wing and a narrow track undercarriage the pilot would have done better to fly a "wing down" approach and landing rather than a crab approach?

IE11 I get "This browser does not support video playback." All praise the wonders of MS.

Firefox & Chrome managed it fine .

Thanks for the link.

It doesn't work here in Firefox

It worked for me in Firefox, George. Maybe a 'plug-in' missing ?

Worked OK on Opera. Nice to see that the captain had good reflexes & that the aircraft responded to them so well!

Thanks for posting!
OK in Firefox Australia.
Nature toys with us!
That's a rather large man made object being tossed about.
