Okay, first, a few little known facts: I was once a student Pilot, training at Palo Alto airport in California.   And, while we lived in England, Georg and I owned a Grumman AA5 Traveller (a lovely 4-seater single propellor aircraft).

Learning to fly, I had fun explaining dressage to my flight instructor.   Why?   Because he had me doing the piloting equivalents of dressage movements... serpentines, shoulder-ins, hauches-in, and collected work in the aircraft!   It was a blast.

Anyway, I still have a love of flight.   And so when I saw this...   Well, take a look!   Here is an amazing video of the new huge double-decker Airbus A-380 during heavy crosswind testing at Keflavik (Iceland).   The wind at Keflavik airport was blowing 35 to 45 knots (40 to 51 mph), and the big bird seemed to manage just fine.

Yup, aircraft dressage!   Very impressive!
