Thanks for posting the link to the Boeing x-wind landing video. I have been carrying that movie around on a flash drive for a while wondering how to post it. The soundtrack ain't too bad either.

As a humble flight dispatcher, and not a pilot, it looks like that on Boeing a/c a wings level approach then kick it straight is the way to go.

I remember a conversation many years ago with one of our drivers about cross wind landings and I'm sure he said the same thing.

Whatever the correct technique is, my condolences to the drivers of this flight and I am happy that everybody was able to walk away from it.
