Never heard any punishmet for people landing with xwind, or making a rawdata App.
Pilot fly... or they supposed to?

Ruzki, I hope you understood the sarcasm in my post. If you are a Captain at VN, you probably would have noticed the low standards of many first officers controlling the airplane. These low standards come from pure fear of making a mistake while controlling the aircraft, always having in mind the dreaded "level" list which can lead to punishment or worse a public humiliation called "safety briefing". Too much yaw, too much bank, too much speed, too much this and that. Especially for new pilots this is pure poison for their development. Therefore you may see poor (or no) crosswind technique and other basic things. But as I said, as long as you follow SOPs "strictly" nothing will ever happen (at least VN management believes that).
