A lot of incorrect instruction....
Gentlemen:
Please refer to:
1. Airbus Flight Operations Briefing Notes
A. Landing Techniques
1. Crosswind Landings
2. FCOM Bulletin No. 828-1
June 04
Use of Rudder on Transport Category Aircraft
3. Flight Crew Operating Maunal
3.03.22 P4
4. Flight Crew Training Manual
NO - 160 09 JAN 09
P 2/10
P 3/10
As I've said many times before on many topics/issues, please read the book for yourself. It's not nuclear physics. If what you read contradicts
your company's SOP, you have to respectfully point this out to the appropriate people in your organization. (But, you're still compelled to comply with the SOP.)
All of the above-mentioned references are available on the internet. I think after your readings, you'll find the crosswind procedures (not 'techniques') to be very clear and easy to understand. And, I think you'll find much of what both is taught and practiced is nonsense.
Fly safe,
