Having flown with the A380 Captain in the Air Force (Phantoms), the airlines, and our experiemental aircraft (RV's), I'll put him up against any pilot on this board.
For an Air Force pilot, that was a great landing!

Wasn't he an FO at Northwest or something like that before he went to Airbus?

Reminds me of some of the old Kai Tak videos of crosswind landings:
