Above on the thread someone mentioned "what if" it had been an A321... (remember that TAP video at LPPT)

I'd say an A321 would've touched the runway during the flare, for a similar sidestick input. Of course, had the input been different, the possibilities are immense...
I usually tend to say that the A321 in gusty winds behaves like a boat at low speeds; you give an input and wait... sometimes it's like nothing happens and it just seems to go where it wants to go! Not so much in pitch but in terms of bank...

Video links are being deleted off different websites. Here's a fresh one.

We'll see how long it lasts.
