BS
landing is a demanding task. you must expect the unexpected. winds, tire burst, steering problems (nose gear) animals on the runway, go around due to traffic on the runway, even failure to stop (rio).
BS...noise abatement, FLying out of KDCA, when offered the shorter Northwesterly runway (formerly33) instead of the northerly runway (formerly 36 now 1) to expedite things, we all finally said hell no. and that was in good weather.
BS...as to worrying about those tankers for the USAF based on the airbus, that might just not stand. so don't buy stock yet!
Unless massive control failure is found ( unlikely as the plane is flying again right now) we have a situation where the crew wasn't up to the task of landing in a high crosswind. It was a terrible crosswind landing and a lucky recovery to a go around.
Does anyone have the total time on type and total time for the pilot landing?
NEVER give up flying the plane.
