No one is looking at the yoke during an unstable approach to landing but out of curiosity I could see out of the corner of my eye if the weather and conditions were doing it or the pilot was. Sorry about the military pilot observation but I think their training is accelerated making them more prone to fly mechanically. Have you ever flown with a buff, B52, pilot? That is what I am talking about. I have flown with outstanding ex military pilots that don't fit into this category by the way. The video doesn't have the resolution to see the aileron input when she kicked the rudder in for landing but the results of the roll to downwind indicates she didn't use the required aileron to keep the wing from coming up as is required in that kind of cross wind landing.
