A380 Crosswind Landing
Just posted, a video of an A380 presumably doing crosswind certification. I'd guess this is Keflavik or Reykjavik.

Don't know what the deal is with APC's feed, but here's a link to a similar video on youtube:

Pretty impressive to see... I bet it was incredible in person... Wonder how hard it was for the pilot in the left seat to see the runway:
"Hey! Put your head down, I can't see the runway!"
"Hell no! What would the tower think?!?"

hey josh what kind of airplane do you fly? I mean corporate jets don't really have the engines under the wings, do they have the same method for crosswind landings? Coming in crabbed and push the rudder at the end?
