To the original topic. My first real windy crosswind takeoff in the DC8 was an eye opener. I did the aileron into the wind thing and as Im rolling down the runway Im bleeding it out, come to rotation and as I rotate I let out the ailerons to transition to the crab and we banked so hard to the downwind side I thought the wing had fallen off! Mind set is everyting. Slipping for a while until you are clear of the ground is okay when you got 4 big motors to drive you through the sky! |
I apologize if my general statement sounded like an absolute at first. However it does remain the same, its time for dude to grab his instructor and practice them.
