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

The pilot is to blame for needing to earn his salary in 45 seconds. It was a sloppy set up and almost became a disaster recovery.

Did anyone notice the the plane scraped his left wingtip after touchdown? the one thing a passenger never sees on a final approach ith the end of the runway. the ones on the left side of that jet got an eyefull of end of the runway. The other side got to see the other end. I wonder if the one videoing this landing got the final landing. And, btw, why were they there? Must have been shooting crosswind landings.

Pilot should have diverted to an alternate port or found a runway in to the wind. That was well outside the cross-wind component for landing.
