The reactions of the pilot landing this A380 at Düsseldorf are truly amazing. What a save!

Incredible! Great footage!

The amount that the wings and elevators flex even a few seconds after the plane is on the ground is astonishing. And the size of the rudder and how quickly he gets full deflection

Jesus Christ that must have been terrifying! Big respect for the pilot and first officer getting that in safely.

Not into modern aircraft but as far as I know, they call a landing like that 'Crabbing'......

Just messaged my mate at Emirates to ask. I'll let you know when he comes back.

'Tis correct mate. The Tristar used to crab like a b*****d when landing down the Falklands on occasion. Surprisingly these things only have a mid 30 knot crosswind capability when landing. The Phantom was good to watch coming in sideways

I'll have to ask the organising committee for details.

Phantoms didn't care which way they flew. All that noise was enough to keep them in the air.

Sounds just like me .............

I prefer to call them the 'secretary' ........
Or say "see the one at the reception desk".

That's a fact mate, lived at Bruggen, Germany, in the 70's where they had 4 Squadrons, rattle your bloody fillings out. Great kite
