The best part is he probably went around and tried it again! That would be even scarrier than the first time!!

Holy rudder Batman. Crosswinds are not your friend. He is lucky he didn't clip the winglets or flaps off.

[BurnTire]

Rudders are for wimps, just land the damn thing in a crab. Did it all the time in the 747.

the way carma and murphy work together aginst me you will never hear me say anything like that.....

being new to the group I assume there are some avaition people on here? Two weeks ago I bought a remote control airplane and I have been workin on figuring it out since. The way the wind blow that thing around and after watching this I think I have cured my desire to become a pilot and will be happy flying from the ground.
