Thanks Denti, just as I would expect.

On the 744, we crab during the approach until flare, at which point a combination of rudder and "into wind" aileron is used to align the aircraft with the runway, and keep the wings level.

that photo of the low approach Air France on aviationpics.com/app/app/htm looks fake. the malaysia looks genuine. :)
