Saw that last night. Had to be George Bush’s fault all the way.

The pilot earned his entire annual salary in those 45 seconds.

The pilot was really hosed this up. Any pilot watching the video will tell you that God spared this flight.

I’m wondering why the pilot even attempted landing when the plane was being blown sideways way up in the air.
To: Scythian
I went through a situation like that on an Air Mexicano flight. Half the crew was drinking in the back of the plane. We headed back up above the storm and circled for what seemed like forever. When we eventually landed, all the airport lights were out and my borrowed luggage was smashed to smithereens. But I’m here to talk about it.

My God, this was close!
I had one “landing” similar to that in NY back in the early 70’s. The pilot put the craft down hard and braked like a wall was in front of us. When he eased to a stop the passengers applauded. We all hit the first bar we saw and consumed mass quantities.

There are people on that flight that might not ever be able to remove the flotation device seat bottom they were sitting on. Talk about some extreme pucker factor.

Worst transition from a crab to a side slip I can remember seeing. Is this guy one of those ab initio 300-hour pilots?
To: Scythian
I want that pilot on my next flight.
To: Scythian
There are old pilots. And there are bold pilots. But there are no old, bold pilots.

Idiot pilot
If you are not in a stable aproach at 500 AGL, go around!
If you are not lined up coming over the fence, go around!
If you are not ready to flare a max of 500 feet past the numbers, go around!
Nobody ever made the evening news with a go around. Lots of dead pilots did when they dodn’t go around.
The left wing scrape almost got him.
