    A380 Landing in 100KMH crosswinds

    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQW6ThGILq4]強風着陸　A380 JUMP! SUPER LANDING NRT BASE THAI AIRWAYS! - YouTube[/ame]

    Close call and the landing gear would need a good inspection after this landing.
    Should they have aborted and landed elsewhere is the question.

    The stress on those wheels and the landing gear must have been huge! Undies moment... I'm thinking he's lucky to have come out of that!!

    I hate monday morning quarterbacking and I'm not saying for a minute that my landings are any better ... but there is a definite aileron movement in the flare which would roll the aircraft to the right (drop the right wing). Freeze frame at 1:35-1:37 you can see the control surfaces move mid way down the wing. The rudder is being used to kick it straight which can raise the upwind wing.

    A bit hard to judge though from side on, but the wing drop could well be pilot induced in trying to override the expected upwind wing rise.

    I had one in a 747 landing at Heathrow a couple of years ago. The wind switched direction from being at about 1 o'clock to directly behind (so came the explanation over the tannoy), the plane rocked violently, swayed from side to side, bounced one wheel off the tarmac, and then the pilot aborted and performed a go-around.
