How does the fly by wire system on the 777 work in a crosswind? Can you sideslip with cross control like a conventional aircraft or does a aileron input on the yoke just command a given roll rate.so that you have to neutrelaze the yoke once the give bank angle is achived?
And what is the normal way of doing it? I have seen both crab and wing low,but not sure what is the normal way of doing it.
Well it's not an Airbus, so just like another Boeing whatever you do with the yoke and the rudder pedals the aircraft will react.
