Plane forced to abort landing in high winds

[kwick]

Why would you use rudder when you are performing a windshear escape maneuver. As sugar explained earlier they received a windshear warning, not a caution, a warning mandating a G/A with no config changes until clear. Applying rudder would just degrade performance at a time when max is called for.

Well,we where discussing the use of the rudder in a crosswind landing.

The argument was made that you should just land in a full crab.

The B777 manual excerpt was provided that clearly stated not to
use that technique on a dry runway.

I'll just agree to disagree with some of the previous posters.

We killed a dead horse many times over without any of us having all
the facts.

No actually kwick you slammed the pilots ability and questioned their skill. I and sugar have read the report and have info from the QAR including at what height they went around. if they had been applying rudder at that height with no aileron input they would have been off the side of the runway or with aileron input scraping a nacelle. These guys executed a text book procedure for a windshear warning.

If you don't think you called into question their abilities go read posts 5, 30, 34 and 36 again.

You slammed a pilot of an aircraft you have never flown because of a video on YouTube and in the process made a complete fool of yourself to all and sundry.

...so many factors you are not aware of.

That's a great shot, those boys were WORKING.

A wind shear warning would warrant
the consideration of a go- around.
.

Who do you work for and what do they teach you?!?! Windshear warning would warrant a consideration to go-around??? WTF? A reactive wind shear warning, especially considering the existing weather conditions, is an automatic escape maneuver.

When you get a TCAS RA, does your company teach you that you may just consider the TCAS RA maneuver?

You are lecturing Emirates pilots about proper crosswind landing techniques when in fact from 50ft and below the aircraft was performing a wind shear escape maneuver...

Based on watching the video it's a normal windshear warning go around. He remained fully configured until the warning goes away...at least that's what it looks like so good job! It looks like it was fun to me!
