    Doesn't look like the link works.

    If it's the plane in Hamburg, Germany I'd like to know why they were trying to land in conditions like that!

    Gee Whiz, WW, that is wierd because I am getting in both from the post & from your quote of the post! What do you think might be the problem?
    Has anyone else had a problem, I wonder?
    As for landing in gale winds, that does beat all, doesn't it!

    This version CORRECTS Corrects that plane was traveling at 155 mph; that was not the speed of the wind.

    Forget the sacks, hope they had lots of TP to pass around the cabin
