Ouch. Once you've sat through the gratutitous squawking-guitar-backed
car advert !

Looks like he touched down the first time as well. I wonder what the
METARs were showing that afternoon? I remember an aborted landing
coming into Chambery airport about 3 years ago with winds gusting to
about 40-45mph.

It works in Infest in Extremis. What is it about large networks using
borkfest? Wait and see the suffering when killmyputer is Vistaed on us.

I was intrigued by the full spoiler deployment (roll control) on the
right wing.

It reminds me of Leeds/Bradford airport in a westerly gale that often
produced mountain wave rotor. Now landing in those conditions was
always FUN.

Metar Sea-Tac for mid afternoon Wednesday KSEA 282153Z 35008KT

Metar series:

http://meteocentre.com/cgi-bin/get_s...=KSEA&DELT=360

shows no winds to give any cause for comment on either last Wednesday
(as the clip suggests) or even the Wednesday before. Strange.

(I had to use IE7 - wouldn't work with Firefox)
