Oh and one more thing Bud... there was no landing, the pilot buggered off to another airport, landed, and went into the lounge bar for a Jack Daniels no ice ....... Straight.

Actually in this extreme case you would use rudder 'as required' to aid in keeping the Aircraft 'Tracking' Straight, and touch down in a slightly crossed up configuration if nessecary. If the Pilot had applied rudder to keep the long axis inline with centreline, he would have drifted out of view to the left.. Are you just out of Flying school ?

Avoid a comment based on an assumtion. One can only hope that you dont make decisions in the cockpit based on your assumtions.

when you are in ground effect you use you rudder to alling the longituginal axis with the runway and make sure you touch down the side from which the wind is coming from first to avoid a gust of wind to lift the aircraft and blow it over, which is what happened in this case.

its obious that you don't fly or ever have flown a plane in your life...so you are wrong and touching down the right mains would have prevented that horrible landing.

Are you aware of how responsive a swept wing is , increasing right aileron imput in their extreme situation, would have been a mistake for a number of reasons...... spot wind checks can often be erroneous as well.

Interestingly, the German media made a heroein out of the co-pilot, a young woman, who supposedly flew the plane and saved the passenger with this brave maneuver. Two weeks later it was briefly reporteted that she had controll during the approach for landing, but the way more experienced pilot took over when things got out of controll.

Holy shit!! After he was blown almost sideways why didn't he go up immediately for a reapproach? |
