If the plane lands at an angle to the runway, there is a massive strain on the landing gear, the Avogas? plane at 3min22 secs has it perfect, and kicks the rudder just before contact to line up the plane and wheels to the runway.

hardly nerve-wracking those pilots are the shizz...the way they land 300 tons in hectic crosswinds is impressive!

Being an airline pilot is like being an anethetist. 98% stultifying boredom... 2% sheer terror
