A380 Airbus Crosswind Landing Flight Test - 67 sec Icelandic TV station video (language is Icelandic) during Airbus A380 crosswind landing certification tests in Keflavik with 40 to 50 knot crosswinds. Technique is to fly crabbed down to flare height then "kick" (gently) the rudder to align the nose. Some crab at touchdown is acceptable and will be cancelled as the main gear also align the bird with the runway. Sounds easy dosn't it? Notice the flight control laws only allow the lower rudder until the aircraft is on the ground, then both upper and lower rudders are controlled by the autopilot during AutoLand operations or by the rudder pedals. This logic helps prevent unwanted roll from the upper rudder due to its placement being so far away from the longitudinal axis of the aircraft.

Crosswind Landing Testing - 177 sec WOW! This is a pretty cool video of a 777 & 747 SP landing in a cross winds down in Brazil. This little item shows the Boeing factory determining the demonstrated crosswind landing limits on the 777 and the 747SP. The engineers make educated guesses, but then the test crews have to go actually prove the numbers. They sneak off to Brazil to do these tests at a certain remote BAF airbase famous for its continual atrocious crosswinds...Should the gear sideloads be excessive and fold one up, there is nobody there to take nasty pix for the Airbus guys to wave around in the press.
This is some good piloting in getting these planes down. It comes close to "incredible".... tire change anybody????
If you haven't seen these it's pretty amazing to watch planes of this size crab walking in on a landing. I can hear the whole crew and the pilot just yelling "Yeehaaaa" at the top of their lungs.
Note the rudder action on landing.
PS: I suspect that the pilot and co pilot are wearing Depends. Auteur : zetre Tags:aircraft747777airplaneslandingcrosswindtestingcoolamazingBoeingAirbus
Stand in the Crosswind - 200 sec Boeing test pilots show off max crosswind landing performance, Tex Johnson rolls the 707 prototype, and the incredible Bob Hoover does things no one else can do - without CRASHING. Auteur : Crashman2 Tags:planecrashplanecrashaviationflying
Fantastic Video of Crosswind Landings - 162 sec Please Comment and Rate!! If any of you have seen the 777 X-Wind Testing origional video (With the spanish) A lot of people like the origional 'surrealist' music - but I didnt, so I changed it!!! I have merely extracted the spanish and put a song more fitting. I love the go-around noise at the end!! Auteur : flyboy172r Tags:CrosswindWind777BoeingPlaneGoAroundBadLanding747
