That was a damn good landing for any pilot, especially a student pilot! props to you and your instructor.

One thing to note bud, and make sure your CFI stays on you about this. After touchdown, don't relax those controls. Keep the yoke aft of neutral, but most importantly, keep increasing the crosswind deflection! If you don't, a gust after touchdown WILL pick the wing up... then it is pretty hard to come back from that. Lastly, the reason for keeping that yoke back is because your flaps are still down. Releasing the yoke will cause the weight to shift to the nosewheel. With the flaps down you can actually have more weight on the nose than the mains allowing the back to skid or lift into the crosswind. I personally have seen FOUR cirrus sr22 end up in a ditch this way. Keep learning, keep trying to safely challenge yourself... maybe not 33 knots though until you have a couple hundred hours :)

In 1978 I took my 6 hour long cross country, I went from Brewer Maine, to Presque Isle, from Presque Isle to Portland Maine, back to Old Town Maine, and then to my home base at Brewer Maine. When I came in over the power lines, the wind was 24 gusting 30 knots, the distance from the power lines to the threshold is approx 100 feet + or - I landed in a headwind on the threshold. It is very tricky landing in strong winds, especially when you are not even signed off yet. It was 1978, I will never forget the ride. My Mom & Dad took pictures of me over the wires, and then on the ground, in N6754A a Cessna 150......Nice job in that 172 my fellow pilot....:-)

I agree with your instructor. Nicely done. I reacall some of my early crosswind landings in a 172. One needed full rudder in one direction and heavy roll on the alierons opposite to keep the centerline on short final. Major crab-walk haha

Oh they asked for pirep once I was off the active 😂 they knew it was a heck of a ride

It’s been many years since I’ve flown but when I got my PPL in the mid-80’s flying the 152 and 172 my instructor loved calling for crosswind landings that were on par with this in the smaller 152 that we were usually in. There’s always the go-around, and he told me if you can get on the runway but can’t get the wing to break over to get 3 wheels down initiate a touch-and-go. He gave a good demo and I did lots of them as PIC. Final approaches were like riding a bucking bronco with the bottom dropping out suddenly here and there but a lot of fun, and sure enough at least a couple of times we made the runway and rolling out but could not get 3 wheels on the ground, firewalled the throttle and went around. Given the options I had and felt confident executing- missed approach go-around or touch-and-go, I never felt unsafe. I know there are limits to how much crosswind a small Cessna can take, and I was on top of the info at the time so as not to get killed, but I was quite impressed with what the plane could handle. I’ll take a heavy crosswind over a tailwind. I had that too when I hung out doing touch-and-goes under special VFR with a storm I could see about 10 miles away--Kansas you can see far. Figured still out there, one more and bring it in. On final the wind shifted, sped me up and I used up about every bit of runaway at Philip Billard. I was getting pushed into the ground just like that. Anyway..

Awesome! Nicely done. Some people misunderstand gust crossing… it does not mean a crosswind constantly wind. Wind shears are the worst. You definitely trust your skills and make it done . The proof is here! Again, nicely done mister 👍🏻🍺

A few weeks ago I landed the same runway pretty spot on with a constant direct crosswind of 23ish knots in a 152 that learn2fly recently aquired. BUT My instructor had to take over when a gust tossed us right back up after I thought I had all 3 wheels firmly planted. It pushed us 10ft to the right and he used all of the rudder available to get it back down on center line. Very good job keeping it in line. 33 knots direct crosswind is not really a joke for an airbus never mind a 172.

So I came in very slow with with the engine at idle. I had to sideslip in with the nose so high it was hard to see the run way through the snow and sleet.

Retired Bush Pilot and aerobatics CFI here. That is a constant 20 knot, you didnt get a gust to 33k, LUCKY YOU. I had to land C150's and C172's and others at over 25k many times. It is a lot more crabbing and then the straigtht slip to touchdown much more banking into the wind. I had 3,500 feet of runway. Used 3k to full stop most times, 25 knot winds dont let you brake too much, the windward tire start slipping and screech even with full aileron, You need double of an over 50 feet obstacle landing. That is why most overshots happen on crosswind landings.

Those types of landings are always (well, with exceptions) a good time. Keeps the ole sphincter muscle in check. But on a serious note, it did appear that there were some gusts in that video. Whether it was the reported 32 knots is anyone's guess, but I'd agree that it didn't hit the full 32 knots at any point on the roundout and flare portions. Like yourself, I've done these countless times (and actually enjoy doing them) and they certainly do have you use up quite a bit of runway. Personally, I like to carry quite a bit of extra speed and touch down a bit faster doing these so I have that extra control authority. It reminds me of one time I landed in a direct 12G32KTS crosswind (and it was every bit of that) in a Cessna 150 at a 23 foot wide runway and about 3,300' long. I was thankful I carried that extra speed because I had to use full lock of aileron from side to side at least half a dozen times while in ground effect to keep it from rolling. Good times...

HFD Is such a nice airport I love the approach over the river

I did a 40 knot xwind once in a Cardinal. Nice job boys!

Very nicely done...

I can land a Cessna 150 in 22kt wind (gusting too) with a little rudder to spare. I've landed a Piper Cherokee in 26kts multiple times, and landed Cessna 172 in about 25kts. I also landed an R44 helicopter in 40-44kts, had no tail rotor authority in the hover and had to sidestep. Not recommended, but when you know the limitations of the aircraft and how to handle them properly, many aircraft are more capable than people realize.

@SoloRenegade

Жыл бұрын

@InvictusAG it's not a flex, it's about proving that just becasue the POH says 15kt max DEMONSTRATED, doesn't mean that is the limit of the aircraft. the limit as I see it is defined by rudder authority. the point at which you run out of rudder travel/authority to control the xwind is the limit. But not everyone is ready or able or should seek to fly at the limit. And when faced with strong xwinds like that, you need to be prepared to find a runway more aligned with the wind as well, even if that means landing at a different airport. Also, landing in high winds like 20+kts as opposed to 10kts is no different at all if a steady wind. Add variable wind speed and direction or gust factors and now it get tricky for people. But if you can do a 10kts steady xwind, 15-20kt steady xwind should be the same skill assuming the aircraft can handle it.

And that is how you do that! Well done indeed!

@@IzzyFlys1 I certainly did. This doesn't mean that it is any way correct for the time that your airplane touched down. If you actually had a 33 knot crosswind, your airplane would have been pushed off the runway and you would not have been able to control it. Hence the commentary of those with more experience that say there's no way you landed a C-172 with a 33 knot crosswind at the time of your touchdown. It's really quite simple. You can tell the crosswind component at the time you landed was less than 15 knots, as you had the ability to hold the airplane on the centerline using the rudder and you weren't even maxing out the rudder, as you were able to move the longitudinal axis of the airplane right AND left using the rudder. KHFD sits in a bowl due to the flood protections installed there and the wind can settle down well as you get below the burm that is located to the right of the airplane when seen in your video. This is likely why you were able to perform your landing in a reported possible 33 knot gust factor crosswind. Trust me, if you do land an airplane in a crosswind situation that is more than the crosswind component limitation of the airplane, you'll find the airplane reacts very differently than what you experienced in your video. It's also considered a dangerous thing to do, and you might have considered landing the aircraft on the cross runway (11/29) at KHFD that day. To more than double the possible crosswind component of an aircraft and choose to perform the landing is simply asking for lots of trouble. In any commercial airline operation, it would have been considered an illegal landing. You might want to ask your instructor what his point was placing you into a position that could have gone much differently, and what you might tell the FAA when they would have come knocking on your door as to why you would be practicing such poor judgement and for what benefit, should you have been pushed off the runway, or maybe worse, flipped over. In an emergency, I guess it could be potentially justified, although again more than doubling the demonstrated crosswind component of an aircraft most likely places it above the total limitation of the aircraft and would also require you to perform some additional tricks that you did not attempt in your video to make it actually successful. I hope you enjoy your flying experiences. The aviation community is a great one and you'll find that most are there to help. Please stay safe and remember, its an unforgiving environment that you've chosen to play in. Getting injured or possibly killed would be a really unfortunately thing. You can have an unlimited amount of fun flying airplanes, as long as you do it with the respect it deserves, including respecting yourself to not place yourself into a position that would potentially end poorly for no real benefit.

Good approach

Beautiful crosswind landing. Love all the aggressive left aileron, necessary to keep that side from lifting.

Been in it once, my instructor said we were actually over the wind limits but obviously had no choice but to land, dang near kept a 45 degree bank the whole time. Cross winds so bad we had stall horn going off at 75 knots (wasnt stalling just wind shifting)

I thought my CFI had a big brass set when he let me solo in a 20 knot crosswind! Kudos both to the pilot and calm instructor. To me it looks kind of like the right foot had the rudder pinned to the floor while the nose was still pointing to the left of the runway to keep the aircraft on course, so I do believe it was over 20 knots during the approach. Wonder if the large berm and trees on the downwind side (to the right) help at all to reduce the wind velocity at the runway? And, also very good to have the cross runway at the touchdown point as the worst part of a crosswind landing is often about how the wind gets crazy being squeezed between the hangers and such on the upwind side.

Not buying it. C-172 max demonstrated crosswind is 17kts or 15kts depending on the model. You CAN land in worse. But hey, pilots… do you agree with me you’d need to lean waaaaaay more into a slip or crab than this plane is exhibiting. Your left leg would be feeling it by the time you got down. Think about how much you have to slip or crab into 15kts direct crosswind. No way this plane could maintain this attitude in 30kts.

I've landed LSAs in x-wind exceeding the thing's maximum rated x-wind component. Less nerding about numbers in the POH , more feel for it, balls&rudder. Ever drifted a car? Drifting a C-182 is to some extent simular, except you have additional control surfaces to control it. Btw, the angles of yoke deflection confirm the ~30kts xwind component. His right foot's floored and the yoke's over 50% to max left deflection - that's some serious x-wind.

For any of you talking absolute shit about it not being a 33knot crosswind, first you clearly hear the wind report right before touching down. 290 at 20g33. They landed on runway 2 which makes it a perfect direct crosswind. So from that report, they had at least a 20 knot direct crosswind. The max demonstrated is 15 knots, but that doesn’t mean that it can’t do more than 15. Simple means that for the average pilot with average skills, 15 knots should be the limit. Now if you’re more experienced and have other trucks up your sleeve, you can land in much worse conditions. Do I recommend flying out knowing that you’ll have some crazy crosswinds like this? No. But it can be done. For all or you 14 hour student pilots who are talking out of your ass saying that the plane can’t land over 15 knots. You got a lot of learning left to do.

Airplane will tell you: The AILERON BANK that corrects the DRIFT on approach, on roll out, IS in the same direction to utilize the ailerons YAW, for DIRECTIONAL CONTROL, as the puny VERTICAL rudder stalls, as relative wind shifts to the field Xwind. The larger Ailerons will always overpower rudder and brake on roll out. Rule of thumb; On roll out…always maintain AILERONS proportionally & opposite the needed rudder. R Fuchs CFI 1507987

Holy moly, was that a full aileron deflection to the left?

Not until touchdown it was full rudder deflection the whole way and varying bank 15-30 Deg

Did you use full flaps or flaps 2? I tend to use flaps 2 in my 182 for xwinds by preference. Great work dude

33 kilotons, that’s enough wind to take out a small country!

Were you landing on rwy 2 by choice? Brainard has a runway 29 that would have directly in line with the wind. Why not use that?? I know you do get a bump going over the dike when landing on 29 with a moderate wind. Nice job on the landing.

Yeah landed by choice on runway 2 for crosswind practice

can't practice a real xw without a real xw. CFI says right at the beginning: Go Around is always there. Great training.

Landing above demonstrated crosswind is test pilot practice

I love flying xwinds, hate calm days except that I can do the most perfect landings you ever saw. I fly the xwind until i run out of rudder. If I still have rudder left I don't switch runways (or if it gets really nasty and gusty and hard to control).

What was the actual crosswind component? Not a 33 kt direct crosswind.

Direct crosswind 90 Degrees off runway heading 20 gusting to 33

Good practice but I would not be a slave to the centerline. In those winds in a lightly loaded Cessna I'd be landing 30 degrees across the runway, especially with that runway width.

Nice. Is this Premier flight school? Is John L. still instructing?
