Scarrrry stuff!! :o

I've been on a couple of flights with crosswind landings and they're no fun, but nowhere near as bad as some on that video!!

I had to change flights at Glasgow airport on my way to Stornoway last January and that was a very windy landing inside the plane as well as outside if you know what I mean ::)

The next time I went I drove :)

Yeah, but most of them wimped out and went around for another go. Can't do that in a glider.  :o
