This video brings back memories from my childhood in West Virginia when the family would go up to Charles Yeager airport and watch the planes taking off and landing. Commercial air travel was relatively new back then and I remember watching the massive aircraft take off and wondering how airplanes worked. As an adult, I still get a thrill

when I set foot on an aircraft, so I was shocked when I saw this video of airplanes trying to land in bad crosswinds.  It's a feeling that I've had once in a while landing at Denver International Airport and I'm not anxious to re-live, but from the safety of YouTube, it's a pretty remarkable sight.  Check out this video to watch airplanes landing in crazy crosswinds. Can you imagine being a passenger on these planes?!?!?
