777 Crosswind Autoland

Recommended Posts

Guest DaveI

Hi All/PSS I have been using Autoland in crosswinds lately. I've found if I let the A/C land with autoland to touchdown it tends to run off the runway on the upwind side. This suggests the autopilot is not "kicking off the drift " to line the aircraft up with the centerline just before touchdown.......or is it me ??
