I was there when this aircraft was presented in Tampa. I have a picture of me standing right next to it!

That was close, nice catch Jason! Keep it! Regards, Allen Azevedo

Umm... whoa! Great shot, but that is not a flight I would have liked to be on.

C'mon join the joyride

This is a cross wind landing

Red bellied war bird making an enterance into LAS!

Hang on to something...

I wonder what the pax on the left side were thinking!

Nice shot. Perfect cross-wind landing utilizing the wing down method!

Wow! What a landing. I've landed many times at LAS, but none as fun as this one. Nice photo.

Just so much precision is required in whatever they do sitting in the cockpit. Wonder what the persons sitting on this side of windows would be thinking.

Must be very strong crosswind! Nice perspective!

Oh my god!! Crazy landing!

Its so beautiful... ;)

Wing crosswind huh?

Unusual attitude at ten feet

Great shot

Great photo but this is not a perfect crosswind landing! If you have had to manoeuvre the jet like this so close to touchdown you have misjudged the crosswind! Sorry to disappoint the armchair experts! ;)

Coool looks like ms flighsim

Looks like a forward slip to landing

This is a proper crosswind landing, especially in the gusty conditions at LAS. Ignore anyone who says otherwise.

This is great

Nice picture there just like my no wind landings on Flight sim lol!

Strong crosswind from the left (check the METARs), upwind wing dipped, opposite rudder deflection. Sounds right to me! It would've been fun to be on board that aircraft, and even better to be on a Tedbus listening in on Channel 9...

Southwest Airlines Rocks! Beautiful Landing shot.

This is a very proper crosswind landing for that size jet in a crosswind of 20-25kts, right before touchdown dip the upwind wing and "roll" the plane to the ground. Excellent shot.

Cheers to the flight crew for getting this bird on the ground safely. I fly thru LAS regularly, and this is almost always what the landings are like. Very hot temperatures outside make it a very bumpy approach in the desert!

Great capture! I'm happy that I was not on that flight.

Excellent crosswind technique... a beautiful photo too!

Cool shot of a plane i`d never like to be in such a situation

Knowing how WN pilots like doing short finals, I first thought this may have been TOO close of one!

Cool! I've made similar landings on Flight Simulator.

Are you scared?!

The landing: amazing. The livery: amazing. The aircraft: amazing. The whole danm thing? AMAZING!!! Awesome shot! Hats off to the pilots.

Great shot! it was the training that SouthWest provided for their pilots that help them get this bird on the ground

Wonderful action shot at a critical moment!

This is an excellent action shot, and trust me, this is how you land a jet in crosswind conditions, opposite rudder, and wing into wind to counter the rolling moment that occurs as a result of yaw increasing the speed of the airflow over the windward wing. If you didn't roll into it, the aeroplane would flip the opposite way, add the crosswind to that and you could depart from the runway. In crosswinds its ok to land on the upwind gear first, it doesn't have to be level.

Wow, go billy

Be careful my friend

I imagine the one at the controls is doing a bit of wrestling with the yoke at this point. Great picture.

Very neat shot. Right at the correct time.
