Another Jet Runway Incident -- This Time Pilot is a Hero
This has to be one of the most dramatic saves a pilot has made on a landing. As the wheels touched down a nearly 100 mph crosswind blew the jet off the runway causing one of the wings to scrape the runway. The pilot cooly steers the jet from the side of the runway to put it in position for a full engine thrust and manages to circle the jet for a second landing which was successful. Watch the video and look at the serious yaw the plane is experiencing before the wheels touch the runway. Kudos to Lufthansa and its pilot.
