Скачать или смотреть BOSH! A350 HARD LANDING 😮

CX239 from Hong Kong smokes the mains on Rwy 27L during crosswinds at London Heathrow.
Watch as the opposite inertia kicks the 230 tonne flying machine all over the place. A real battle between pilot and machine to get that thing straightened up with the rudder - Pilot won it 💪🏻
The direction that thing was facing once they’d caught it, I seriously thought they would Go-Around.
Pilots were saying after the show, and I completely understand, that ‘this footage doesn’t replicate the turbulence we experience in the last 2 miles of approach’.
I’ve been a passenger during strong winds on approach. Seeing the wing flexing and the flight surfaces going crazy, I imagine the pilots up-front in complete calm: Aircraft crabbing, NFP calling-out the numbers, picking their moment to go manual, one hand on the Thrust Levers, expecting those last-second gusts.
Even during a landing like this, you’d be surprised to see just how calm the pilots are when it’s all going-on
