Crosswinds at BWI

[spiderweb]

I found this video scouring youtube. Well what do you know? Here is a video of my private and instrument teacher demonstrating a crosswind landing at my home drome!

Nothing exciting, just a very pretty, very nicely-explained crosswind landing! Enjoy!

"After this video, I did two more touch and goes. My landings were not as good as his."

Hard to match a 30,000 + hour pilot, former fighter pilot, and rated in everything up to 737s. He shouldn't feel so bad!

I couldn't detect much crab or wing down on final -- what was the x-wind?

I saw that, too. Especially considering it is a C150 (which I've flown probably 100 hours way back when), I'm guessing it was probably a 5 or 6 kt crosswind factor.

I just liked the demo.
