Crosswind Landings during a storm at Düsseldorf

[Cancel 2018. 3]

yeah, i know i posted something like this before (i hope it is not the video), but i have a love of aviation. took a few aviation classes in college, but couldn't afford to finish my private license. when i was checking out post grad schools, my friend nearly blacked out from a physical ailment (unfortunately, he had to end his dream of being a pilot - 3 classes left to commercial license) as we were landing. i gently grabbed my stick, though i was freaking out and talked to him and he became coherent and landed us through extreme physical pain. i would have had to take the plane up and get talked down to landing. i have an amazing sense of gratitude for any pilot who landa any plane, especially under severe conditions.

Does this help? That reminds me of a landing several years ago in Phuket, Thailand during a tropical storm. I was bloody glad to get down in one piece.

I could tell you but I would have to kill you. Only joking, go to the video in YouTube and right mouse click, then select copy video URL and paste that into your post, simples!!
