Something positive
 

How about something that everyone enjoys? Fighter guys, heavy guys, civilian guys - we all stop talking when we can watch some other guy land.

You've probably seen the video of the Boeings doing the crosswind landing tests; hopefully you haven't seen this version of it - I specifically biased it toward the 777 and 757.

The Airbus at the beginning is just a bonus - think of it as a clown car. Or as a baseline.

Boeing in the Wind.

Those are pretty good. Looks like 45 degree crab in some of them.

I was going to say something sarcastic, but decided not to deface a thread labeled "Something Positive".

I hope to get the chance to fly those fine airplanes someday.

Nevermind!

ira,

Thanks for not memorializing my negative vibes.

We'll make this a kinder and gentler place someday!:D

Actually, after I made my post, and then read yours again, I said nope!

group hug????

:)

No thanks.

I think it's open for sarcasm and negativity.

Funny, I've seen plenty of these types of videos from Boeing and Airbus...But, never from Douglas.

Is that due to the gear falling off, or the wing breaking off in hard or crabbed landings?

I'm not sure the moderator will permit a thread titled "Something Positive." Pilots aren't happy unless they are *****ing which would (sort of?) encourage a thread titled "Pilots *****ing about pilots *****ing."
