Boeing 777-300ER Emirates Dubai crosswind landing <br />Airbus is a division of Airbus Group SE that manufactures civil aircraft. It is based in Blagnac, France, a suburb of Toulouse, with production and manufacturing facilities mainly in France, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom. <br />The Airbus A380 is a double-deck, wide-body, four-engine jet airliner manufactured by the European aircraft company Airbus. It is the world's largest passenger airliner, and the airports at which it operates have upgraded facilities to accommodate it. It was initially named Airbus A3XX and designed to challenge Boeing's monopoly in the large-aircraft market. The A380 made its first flight on 27 April 2005 and entered commercial service in October 2007 with Singapore Airlines. <br />The Boeing Company is an American multinational corporation that designs, manufactures, and sells airplanes, rotorcraft, rockets and satellites. It also provides leasing and product support services. Boeing is among the largest global aircraft manufacturers, is the second-largest defense contractor in the world based on 2013 revenue,[6] and is the largest exporter in the United States by dollar value. Boeing stock is a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. <br />The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a long-range, mid-size wide-body, twin-engine jet airliner developed by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. Its variants seat 242 to 335 passengers in typical 3-class seating configurations. It is Boeing's most fuel-efficient airliner and is a pioneering airliner with the use of composite materials as the primary material in the construction of its airframe. The 787 was designed to be 20% more fuel efficient than the Boeing 767, which is being replaced. The 787 Dreamliner's distinguishing features include mostly electrical flight systems, swept wingtips, and noise-reducing chevrons on its engine nacelles. It shares a common type rating with the larger Boeing 777 to allow qualified pilots to operate both models. <br />In aviation, a crosswind landing is a landing maneuver in which a significant component of the prevailing wind is perpendicular to the runway center line. <br />Aircraft in flight are subject to the direction of the winds in which the aircraft is operating. For example, an aircraft in flight that is pointed directly north along its longitudinal axis will, generally, fly in that northerly direction. However, if there is a west wind, the actual track of the aircraft will be slightly to the east of north. If the aircraft was landing north on a north-south runway, it would need to compensate for this easterly drift caused by the west crosswind. <br />An airline is a company that provides air transport services for traveling passengers and freight. Airlines lease or own their aircraft with which to supply these services and may form partnerships or alliances with other airlines for mutual benefit. Generally, airline companies are recognized with an air operating certificate or license issued by a governmental aviation body. <br /> <br />Airlines vary from those with a single aircraft carrying mail or cargo, through full-service international airlines operating hundreds of aircraft. Airline services can be categorized as being intercontinental, domestic, regional, or international, and may be operated as scheduled services or charters. <br /> <br /> <br /> ABX Air <br /> Aer Lingus <br /> Air Adriatic <br /> Air Atlanta Icelandic <br /> Air France <br /> Air Inuit <br /> Air Japan <br /> Air Tindi <br /> Air Transat <br /> Alliance Airlines <br /> Arrow Air <br /> Belavia <br /> BEXAIR <br /> Blue Panorama Airlines <br /> British Airways <br /> CanJet <br /> Capitol Air <br /> Champion Air <br /> Citybird <br /> Enter Air <br /> EuroAtlantic Airways <br /> Finnair <br /> Frontier Flying Service <br /> Germania <br /> Helios Airways <br /> Japan Airlines <br /> Jet2.com <br /> JMC Air <br /> Kelowna Flightcraft Air Charter <br /> Kenn Borek Air <br /> Ladeco <br /> Lion Air <br /> LOT Polish Airlines <br /> Luzair <br /> Malaysia Airlines <br /> Magnicharters <br /> Miami Air <br /> Omni Air International <br /> Ozjet <br /> Palmair <br /> Petra Airlines <br /> Rayyan Air <br /> Skyservice <br /> Sunrise Airways <br /> TAME <br /> Thomas Cook Airlines <br /> Thomson Airways <br /> TransMeridian Airlines <br /> TUIfly <br /> White Airways <br /> Austria <br /> <br /> Niki <br /> <br /> France <br /> <br /> Transavia France <br /> <br /> Germany <br /> <br /> Eurowings <br /> Germanwings <br /> <br /> Greenland <br /> <br /> Aluu Airlines <br /> <br /> Hungary <br /> <br /> Wizz Air <br /> <br /> Iceland <br /> <br /> WOW air <br /> <br /> Ireland <br /> <br /> Ryanair <br /> <br /> Italy <br /> <br /> Blue Panorama Airlines <br /> <br /> Latvia <br /> <br /> AirBaltic <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Netherlands <br /> <br /> Transavia <br /> <br /> Norway <br /> <br /> Norwegian Air Shuttle <br /> <br /> Romania <br /> <br /> Blue Air <br /> <br /> Russia <br /> <br /> Pobeda <br /> <br /> Spain <br /> <br /> Volotea <br /> Vueling <br /> <br /> Switzerland <br /> <br /> easyJet Switzerland <br /> <br /> Turkey <br /> <br /> Pegasus Airlines <br /> <br /> United Kingdom <br /> <br /> easyJet <br /> Flybe <br /> Jet2.com <br /> Monarch Airlines <br /> <br />Middle East <br /> <br /> Israel <br /> <br /> UP <br /> <br /> Jordan <br /> <br /> Air Arabia Jordan <br /> <br /> Kuwait <br /> <br /> Jazeera Airways <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Saudi Arabia <br /> <br /> Flynas <br /> <br /> United Arab Emirates <br /> <br /> Air Arabia <br /> flydubai <br /> <br /> Yemen <br /> <br /> Felix Airways <br /> <br />North America <br />Spirit Airlines is a large low-cost airline that operates flights around Nort
