Landing or taking off in heavy crosswinds really sucks no matter which plane you're in.
It could be the biggest airliner in the world, a prop plane, or these F-18s taking off in
30 to 40 knot crosswinds; ( About 75 Km/h - 46 mph ); It looks fun from the outside
but it really sucks for the pilot and everyone else inside.
Interested ..... The Video.
Use earphones to listen to the tremendous noise of those turbines.
