Thanks for that, Feathers McGraw. Bit like a B707 at Blantyre-Chileka (30-metres width), which is one of the reasons Air Malawi used a VC10 for a few years in the 1970s before Lilongwe opened.
Hi RAT 5,
The FBW Airbuses are not allowed to be flown with crossed controls. Can't speak for the A380, but Airbus used to claim that the A320 would hold its wings level during de-crab if the sidestick remained neutral (i.e., no roll demand). In practice, a momentary upwind roll-input during de-crab had the desired effect of enabling the upwind gear to touch down first.
I gather the off-set gear angle on the B52 has to be preset before landing, Dave? Of course the B737 main gear has a degree of castoring ability, as you can often see if you follow one along a straight taxiway.
