About 37 years ago I went to Canada for a holiday with my brand new PPL in my pocket hoping to sample light A/C/ flying out there. During a check out my Canadian instructor assessed my cross wind landing technique and stated "Guess you were taught by an ex-RAF instructor huh? O.K. here we drop the wing into wind and keep the A/C in line with the runway with rudder. With this technique you can put a Cessna 150 down with 30 knots across"
I've never forgotten that, and it works with Aztecs, Partenavias, Twiin Otters, Jetstreams, Shorts 330/360's and, I am relaibly informed, Boeing 707's - as well as your Cessnas, Cherrytrees, Robins and so on.
