Boeing crosswind landing

Today's secret briefing
''This little item shows the Boeing factory determining the demonstrated crosswind landing limits on the 777 and the 747SP. The engineers make educated guesses, but then the test crews have to go actually prove the numbers. They sneak off to Brazil to do these tests at a certain remote BAF airbase famous for its continual, atrocious crosswinds...Should the gear sideloads be excessive and fold one up, there is nobody there to take nasty pix for the Airbus guys to wave around in the press. ''
That dispatch came from our chief of intelligence, Cuzzin Ricky.  Here's just a snippet of the film he sent, and I think you'll be properly impressed.  Take that, Airbus bastards.

Thanks Rodger, it further reminds me of two things. Boeing is better and why I don't like to fly.
