Plane forced to abort landing in high winds

[Dieterly]

From The Boeing FCTM:

Touchdown In Crab

The aircraft can land using crab only (zero side slip) up to the landing crosswind limit speeds. On dry runways, upon touchdown the aircraft tracks toward the upwind edge of the runway while de-crabbing to align with the runway. Immediate upwind aileron is needed to ensure that the wings remain level while rudder is needed to track the runway centreline. The greater the amount of crab at touchdown, the larger the lateral deviation from the point of touchdown. For this reason, touchdown in a crab only condition is not recommended when landing on a dry runway in strong crosswinds.

On very slippery runways, landing the aircraft using crab only reduces drift toward the downwind side at touchdown and permits rapid operation of spoilers and autobrakes, because the main gear touchdown simultaneously. This may reduce pilot workload since the aircraft does not have to be de-crabbed before touchdown. However, proper rudder and upwind aileron must be applied after touchdown to ensure that directional control is maintained.

The Capt is a North American DEC with extensive LHS wide body experience.

He took a look, didn't like, came back later ...and all went to the bar.

This is a non-thread.

Just think Sniper, if you wouldn't have failed your Emirates interview you would have been a 777 Captain by now.

sorry you are not qualified, they require previous Airbus or Boeing time. Mesa does not operate either.

It's Gander not Gandor.

Delta has a college degree requirement and so did Northwest. You can't even spell so you didn't get hired by either of them. Emirates, China, Kalitta all probably didn't hire you because you are a bigot and can't even qualify for an ELP level 4......Totally Mesa.

Fun historical fact -

When the chubby bald man started Mesa, his intention was to name the airline 'Mensa'. Unfortunately the spelling was challenging and the application to the FAA read 'Mesa'.

One of the many ironies of aviation that only I am privy to.
