Those 10° crosswinds will get you everytime!!

Hitting the inboard pod takes some serious doing.

Back in the day, a pilot conducting a go-around in a 727-200 series, managed to nail the tail skid and a wingtip stinger light. Now that’s talent.

Yes, at peak. Wind is true, Rwy HDG is mag. Wind speed is in meters/sec. Somebody did the math in the comments.

Good point tired Tired soul only problem is I didn’t know about the Jan class till March. Know I understand how someone must feel when he is convicted of a crime he didn’t commit.
