That was killer cross wind, that dude is very lucky he got to pull out of that.

Holy crap, that's an insane cross wind. I'm surprised he even tried to put it down

As someone who did a lot of commuter flying, they usually just say fuck it and try again if it's that bad

NONE_too_SOFT 03-03-2008 09:28 PM

which they did. heard all bouts this on the news today.

fatburg 03-03-2008 09:30 PM

i know, I was just surprised he actually tried to touch it down.

NONE_too_SOFT 03-03-2008 09:31 PM

see the wing hit the ground? that was kinda fucked up.

That fucker got so damned lucky. seriously.


but I've seen some badass fotage of badass boeing test pilots in worse crosswinds than that bringing down 777's, 747's and chit.....

Dude shouldn't have tried that approach....


And the Top Gun quote is.... "It's better to retire your aircraft than push a bad position."
