Crosswind Landings during a storm at Düsseldorf

submitted by mintbbb

1 decade 2 years 1 month ago

...on an icy runway! A few takeoffs too, which look even more impressive!

YouTube Description:

13 months after I uploaded my first crosswind video I was finally able to get some footage which is on the same level as my first crosswind video. This time the airport was temporarily closed due to snowdrifts on the runway. In some of my clips you can still see lots of snow on the runway and there were lots of interesting effects when the planes were slowing down on the runway. I hope I don` t have to wait another 13 months to make another good crosswind video.

When I look at this, I appreciate how amazing it is that accident levels are so low on commercial airlines.

compared to what?

Compared to the total number of flights with no accidents.

I had one landing once in which I wondered what the hell was going on and if the pilot had his license. Now I know that not only he had, but he also had skill. Restrospective cheer to him.
