1. The approach was not stable. They should have done a go around and go for the other runway which had better conditions 2. Due to unsufficient crab angle they had to turn into the wind SHORTLY before landing AGAIN 3. It is not clear whether the problem is due to a gust or a wrong control input 4. A lot of other aircraft landed without big problems shortly before this airbus, even a smaller business-jet Georg ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
