Good landing. Got it straight at touch down and landed in the middle of the runway. Not an easy landing in high cross winds.

Flew into Nantucket once. It had just one runway so pilots can't line up with the wind. Chances of cross winds are always high there. The yaw and roll on a landing can be quite scary there.

Pilot stuck that plane down “on the numbers” despite a severe crosswind. That was a great piece of flying and shows the value of “humans in the cockpit”.
