    I was at the Airshow today. The aircraft with the help of a left cross wind temporarily left the runway grass onto the adjacent dirt before straightening out and resuming their roll out. Pilots and crew are all safe and sound. And the Aircraft was not harmed

      Thank you for the proper explanation Austin. I know the crew very well. They are well trained and I'm sad at some of these comments. Unexpected crosswinds can happen. They didn't "almost crash" as the video indicates, although for people just watching, I'm sure it looked scary.

      @@tmaster3332 They also have a jet engine hanging under each wing. Not usable in this case, but for assisting take-off in difficult conditions. The jets alone are capable of maintaining flight, but for only a short time because of fuel limitation. For instance, losing both main engines after gaining 500ft AGL upon take-off, they could circle and land, but with no time to spare. I know this because I was aboard when it happened. 😬
      It's an interesting account, but I was not part of the air crew so I never learned the cause of the engine problems. I was a jumper on a training mission. We just moved on to another aircraft, but one of the pilots said we had 30 seconds of fuel left upon landing. Good times, good times.

      Way, way back when, I was a member of the fire department crew that was standing-by at the very 1st Airshow ever put on by this organization (Geneseo Warbird Museum) back in the summer of 1988. I shot still film photographs (which I still have today) of a/c performing at the airshow from a top a fire truck which was parked quite nearby from where this video was shot. Would anyone happen to know by chance if Wadsworth's B-17 is still part of the museum collection? I had heard he / they had lost it years ago and it went to another museum collection or to the CAF. Is the Catalina Flying boat still around? Thanks.

    This is exactly why keeping the ailerons deflected into the direction of the crosswind AFTER landing is so important. Also on taxi. These guys still had enough speed going to biff it even in that big bird. Glad everyone (including the airplane) are alright.

    Back in the early 70's I was at a old airfield that was built for the Army back during WW2 for flight training. My unit was conducting helicopter training there. On the other side the airborne support was training for low speed cargo drop. They came down the runway like that, drop open the rear door and supply sleds would come out. There was a couple that had the jet assist. They would practice both day and night. At night only flares lined up the runway. This was during the last few years of Vietnam. This was at Camp Macall near FORT BRAGG. Most anyone who spent time on Bragg during that era probably knows where I'm talking about.

Having control of it means you make it go where you want it to go, and unless you’re trying to say that they wanted to run it off the runway, they were no longer in control of wher it was going. If every time an unexpected crosswind came up the crew just let yhe airplane run off the runway, there would be a lot of airplanes off the runway. You’re not a pilot, are you? Part of being a pilot is being able to keep your pksne ubder control in unexpected wind gusts. They failed that test.
