I beleive Boeing designed it for lazy or pilots who could not land In a x/wind
t211,
I can't believe you wrote that!
Oh yes, I can just imagine the chief design engineer on the 737 many years ago sitting down with his fellow designers when that eureka moment struck them....
" Guys, how about this, they are a bunch of lazy gitz those pilots, lets design an aircraft that they can land in a x/wind without having to do anything!"
