Strange then that it's the way the Boeing autopilot does it (on the 777 at least) in an autoland.
Not strange at all... Xwind limitations for a (777-) autoland are far less than the max. demonstrated xwind. I wonder why that is? Having said that; I'm okay with "George" using its technique... upto 25kts across. I'm going to stick with my preferred and approved by mr. Boeing -method...
I guess that puts me in the "ego-trippin' heroes-" camp...
