I bet that rudder was pushed through the floor
I beg to disagree, while the plane is within limits to fly perfectly with those cross-wind speeds, there is no way that its within the limits for landing. I think the video prooves that and furthermore safetly should always come first not airline scheduals.Gawwad wrote:

Yep Ive also had a few dodgy experiences but this is rediculous, how did this aircraft even get clearence to land. The control tower knows about wind speed and direction. They obviously thought, what the heck, just let them land, they will be fine. Hope some heads roll!

The gusts winds don't matter, they will get permission to atempt a landing and are ready to act if something goes wrong.
I understand what you are saying, Im just pointing out the fact the ground control knows about wind conditions in and around the airport and in my opinion, I believe it was too much of a risk. If it was indeed within safety standards than I think they should review them.Gawwad wrote:

In most cases it's completely safe to atemp the landing, to see how the weather is at ground level and if it's possible to land, and then pull up if the gusts are too strong. Emphasis on most.
How to drift a plane?!?!
Yeah, you can hear lots of wind on the video.
Still, foreigners..

What I hate about this is every single person thinks it was the weekly Lufthansa stunt show and says that the Pilots should be fired and shit.

Everyone seems to be an expert on aviation.
Fuck me, was that plane flying sideways?!
Didn't know planes in real life could use the A and D keys to strafe...
