Crosswind Landing Technique
Channel: Lets Fly VFR Flight Simulation
Date: 2018-08-26

As a real world pilot I have spent time practicing my crosswind landings and its a skill that should be regularly practiced. Today we are going out in X Plane 11s Default Cessna 172 to fly a few crosswind landings in a 19 Knot crosswind from North on Runway 05 at Gawler. Gawler is my real world flying airport where I fly Jabiru 160 /170 /230 aircraft.

As a real world LSA pilot its up to me to make sure I'm ready because its been shown that LSA pilots crash more often in crosswinds than GA pilots. Our aircraft are lighter than GA and our controls are also lighter so its easy to over correct. Lets fly one of the two basic types on crosswind landing techniques with Flaps at Full then Half then no flap at all.

This is a great insight into landing accidents.

Lets Fly VFR is a channel for flight simulation enthusiast where we practice and discuss VFR or Visual Flight Rules Flying. Talking and giving you tutorials on how I as a real pilot use the tools and information to plan and fly. 
My simulator is X-Plane 11. Having tried all the other platforms over the years this has really taken me by surprise. The ease of adding your own Airports and photo scenery has been amazing.
Fly with me as we discover South Australia and my real home airport and I'll take you on flights and training exercises that we will all find challenging. SUPPORT THE CHANNEL by Checking out AMAZON with this code!
