Whoa baby, whoa! Ain't cross-winds fun? ;D

I really like that sequence! Seems like it's done by a tv-crew...

Irfanview - http://www.irfanview.com it is a very good program, and you can get clearer pictures. If you want more info, PM me and I will fill you in on what I know.
Hope this helps ;)

Great googly-moogly!! Can I open my eyes now?

It's pretty scary when you see the short linear distance between your position in shot 1 and your touchdown in shot 2... and not to be a pest, but why were you landing on Rwy 08 with the wind out of the west ? Methinks Rwy 26 would've made more sense...

Well-salvaged, though, at any rate...
I can see the overhead bins flying open, and people's false teeth sailing towards First class... Welcome to Phoenix!!

I can relate to the thrill of victory when it comes to a KILLER crosswind and just keeping ON the runway.

"I can see the overhead bins flying open, and people's false teeth sailing towards First class... Welcome to Phoenix!!"

Now that is funny!

My type of landing....

Fly over the runway..Nearing the end Roll over pull back throttle down and maybe airbrakes and such

I still remember someone saying in an MP flight

"How did you get down so fast"

Nice!! But as cspyro said get irfanview and maybe turn up anti-aliasing on your graphics card. Your shots will turn out nice and crisp! Landing with a crosswind is challenging, but my favourite (and i think mor challenging) is at 2000 feet above the runway threshold in a plane, cut the throttle, extend full flap, nose dive then land. If you can get it down without burying your plane on the first attempt you're doing well
