AIRBUS A400 A400M ATLAS C 1 C1 RAF LUFTWAFFE CROSSWINDS CROSSWIND LANDING LANDINGS CROSS WIND BRIZE

Aircraft have been designed to takeoff with headwind or in other words, the wind blowing directly at the front of the aircraft. This helps with lift and is also fuel efficient. Aircraft also land with the wind blowing towards them, which helps with slowing the aircraft down. This is way a particular runway is used, it is chosen in relation to the direction of the wind. But what happens if the wind is blowing to the sides of the aircraft or in other words dissecting the runway? This is called crosswinds and is most challenging with take off and landings. The crosswinds were gusting around 30mph from the South. Crosswind landing is a manoeuvre where pilots land an aircraft with a wind component blowing across the runway, pushing the aircraft sideways. To counteract this drift, pilots use two primary techniques: the crab method, where the aircraft is pointed into the wind during approach to align with the runway, followed by a final alignment using a sideslip; and the wing-low or sideslip method, where the aircraft is kept aligned with the runway using ailerons into the wind and rudder to keep the nose straight. In both cases, the pilot must apply continuous control inputs for ailerons and rudder to manage drift and maintain alignment during the approach, flare, touchdown, and even after landing on the runway until the aircraft is safely stopped. These RAF Airbus A400M C.1 Atlas face some challenging approaches with their circuits. The ATLAS C.1 A400M is a tactical airlift and provides strategic oversize lift capabilities. It entered service in 2014 and the serial numbers start with ZM4. It is flown by four squadrons at RAF Brize Norton; 206 TES, 30, LXX and XXIV OCU squadrons. The A400M has the ability to carry a 30-tonne payload (that's about 13,000 delicious pieces of whole salmon) over 2,400nm and that can be on sandy remote beaches, civilian makeshift runways, military airfields, short of long runways. You can even deliver loads by parachute too. The aircraft is capable of operating at high-level altitudes up to 40,000ft. Atlas can carry 116 passengers, or 9 aircraft pallets and 54 passengers, or 66 stretchers, with a maximum payload of 37 tonnes. The RAFs A400Ms are powered by four Europrop EPI TP400 DG Turboprop engines that punch out 11,600 of shp that are fitted with an 8 blade variable pitch fully feathering propellers. Empty weight is 78,600 kg (173,283 lb) with a wingspan of 42.4 m (139 ft 1 in)) while able to achieve Mach 0.68 top speed with a service ceiling of 40,000ft. All this and the Luftwaffe have even trialled out a conversion to assist with Air to Air Refuelling other aircraft! #skills #raf #airbus #militaryaircraft #a400m Official Ted Coningsby Merchandise https://tedconingsby.co.uk/shop/ noTEDS https://tedconingsby.co.uk/noteds/ Ted Social stuff Instagram   / ted_coningsby   Facebook   / tedconingsbyuk   X https://X.com/tedconingsby www.tedconingsby.co.uk Ted Coningsby Membership: Join our channel to get access to members only perks.
