Don't you usually land into the wind on an aircraft carrier. I doubt it was a crosswind, but who knows. Anyway, he was fine until the last few seconds when he drifted towards the right of the screen (left side of runway). The hard left bank was dumb. That is a full afterburner, go around!

Until you have done it try and keep the sarcasm to a minimum. Those pilots risk their life everytime they come down to the ship.

You could say the same about every pilot when he comes to land.
