They are landing …
They are landing sideways because they’re doing crosswind certification tests. No, Boeing airliners don’t have steerable main gears for landing and yes, in my professional opinion the 747 at 2:10 should have gone around.

why do you think is landing sideways ing cross wind durrrr

at kai tak going around would’ve taken the crew way too long – hes just a confident captain lol

The 777 was taken …
The 777 was taken during flight tests during certification. They (flight test team) would sit at a regional airport and wait until they heard about extreme crosswinds at a airport. They would then fly to that airport and conduct the approaches 2 engines 1 engine and autoland are some examples.

So why is it …
So why is it landing sideways?
Lol just kidding. Don’t some Boeings have steerable main gear for high crosswind landings?
And wow, that 747 at 2:10 should have gone around, ya think?

The tests are a …
The tests are a requirement of the FAA and have nothing to do with any specific airport. They are performed at an airport in Sierra Vista Az.

Its caused by the …
Its caused by the wind and they do what is called a crosswind landing.

u make me feel like i in hawii wit dat music u got man cmon

Well its not called …
Well its not called crabbing, but that is exactly why they land sideways in high winds. its called cross wind landing.

Same as when you …
Same as when you drive and wind bushes u out of the road and u hold steering tilted against the wind. Runway has upwind/downwind most times. Sometimes wind blows across the runway so pilots overcome this by adjusting rudder and aileron bushing aircraft against the wind and only main landing gear align with runway. After air-brakes deployed and airspeed slows pilots easily adjust rudder and aileron to bring rest of the aircraft back align with runway. In aviation this is called “Side-Slipping”

See most times …
See most times runway has parallel upwind/downwind. Sometimes wind blows across runway making aircraft loose course. To overcome this pilots adjusting rudder and aileron to maintain course (Side-Slip) Its the same method you would do to overcome crosswind when u drive and holding the steering tilted against the wind to maintain control. The main landing gears are only part of the airplane align with runway. After air-brakes deployed rest of aircraft follows. Hope that answers your question. bye

Its becasue they …
Its becasue they have wind that is blowing sideways, called ‘crosswind’ and in order for them to land on the runway, they need to turn the plane into the wind.

yeah i think thats …
yeah i think thats in thailand, the worst place for jets to land cuz its so mountainous and lotsa wind

basically, if they …
basically, if they flew in a straight line during heavy Cross winds, they would not line up with the runway, and probably crash. Instead they aim the nose of the aircraft into the crosswind, thus cancelling out the sideways drifting. During final touchdown, the captain plays with the rudder to line up with the runway cener line. Peace

LOL Look up ” …
LOL Look up “Crosswind Landing”
September 14th, 2009 at 8:21 am
they are flying …
they are flying like that (called crabbing) to compensate for the wind which would blow them off course otherwise. Someone can go more into detail, but thats the basic idea.
