There are other ones available from that airport in Spain, apparently it and Wellington get pretty bad crosswinds. The folks in that plane had to be queasy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_LaAkAyoz0 Wellington Oh, and this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rMageU9lng Pilot Induced Oscilation, yes, it's real -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

If anyone wants to see this and is in the DFW area, head down to the south observation area at DFW airport. I stopped in this morning on my way to work and they are getting about 35mph winds with gusts up to 45mph and they are coming out of the north/northwest. Things won't be as bad as these videos but you'll definitely see the jet hover almost directly above you at the observation post. With their ground speed being about 110-120mph they are being pushed by the winds to about 80 or so. It's pretty neat to see.
