Lattitude41: Large passenger jets land in crosswinds all the time. Indeed during the days mentioned in the letter -- I assumed you read it -- almost all jet operations were on either Runway 5 or 23. Conditions were deteriorating - storms were coming. Yet these few passenger jet pilots chose to come in on 16 without any electronic aids. Why did they take this chance with tens if not hundreds of passengers' lives when all the other pilots were doing what appears to be the more prudent thing? Perhaps you have some insight here?
