Just had the Youtube video pointed out to me... that was us landing lol... well the Captain, certainly not the white-knuckled fo on the rhs...
Brilliant work by the captain there... it was awesome to see from the flight deck. Pretty much all the winds given were out of limits outright, except the last couple of wind checks before da and landing which were on the limit gusting out of limits. The passengers were really grateful to arrive at Leeds as all the previous flights ended up at Doncaster I recall...
During the walkround the wind increased again and it was pretty much impossible to stand up. The ground crew were having a rotten time, the baggage handlers looked ready to strike... by the time we were taxiing out again the wind had reduced to just about legal.
Pretty torrid year so far though... house windows trying to blow in as I type...
