Topbunk, my post was a little tongue-in-cheek. I have done enough of my own interesting approaches in the last month or two, but ballpark figures should at least be in the park. 60 degrees is nowhere near 2/3 crosswind, and using your figures you would assume all 42 kts across. Anyway well done to the crew. I can imagine the approach would have been more than a little interesting.
