dc.description.abstract	Pilots' control movements and the accuracy of touchdown have been analysed for two distinct crosswind landing techniques. The sideslipping technique gave generally better accuracy at touchdown. On the other hand, the crabbing technique required slightly less control power and Was more comfortable for the pilot, but it made considerable demands on pilot judgement in the drift removal manoeuvre.	en_US
