Crosswind Landings
No pictures in this post, just a video. Basically, this is a strip where Boeing tests the capabilities of their aircraft. This video shows Boeing testing their aircraft's ability to land in a crosswind, and also testing the side loading capabilities of the landing gear. My crosswind landings seem pretty tame, now, in comparison to what these test pilots are able to do.

That is an amazing video, Nate. Hard to believe someone could actually land a jet coming in at those angles. Amazing.
Wow. Just WOW. That is awesome. And those are some huge planes, too! Cool, Nate :o)
