9.004 Crosswind Landings<br />

Crosswind landings are a little more difficult since the wind is pushing the aircraft<br />

across the runway. Turn slightly into the wind, keeping that wing dipped. Point the<br />

aircraft slightly off the side of the runway. Right before touchdown, level the wings<br />

and turn directly onto the runway. Alternatively, apply rudder toward the wind,<br />

flying at a constant sideslip. Many pilots find the second technique easier;<br />

however, in a strong crosswind, the sideslip angle may be prohibitive.<br />

hAvoid crosswind landings if the crosswind speed is greater than 30<br />

knots.
