In The Cockpit, Landing A 737 In Strong Winds Looks Insane

...I'm always saying that airline pilot gets his all salary for one landing per month...this is the day I earned mine...maximum crosswind limit steady, gust plus steady and gust in one...FULL FORCE column deflections was reqired...I LOVE Boeing 737 for it's stability in severe conditions... - Artur Kielak https://www.facebook.com/akielak/posts/10210620367896811?pnref=story

Yep,

This is a difficult landing and there are tonnes of corrections happening, but you would see the same type of corrections on any landing (just not as many).

And it doesn't matter the size of the plane either. I have been in a float plane multiple times and the same type of corrections happen on landing with that aircraft.

Take offs are mostly a breeze. Get your speed, pull up and and you are on your way. Landings are what those guys are paid for.

I'm pretty sure there's lag between the controls and the surfaces.
