WHOA 😮 CRAZY SIDEWAYS LANDING!

BA288 A350K lands from Phoenix on opposite lock or ‘full crab’ at Heathrow during strong/gusting SW crosswinds.
Check-out the hard-over rudder action as the pilot corrects the drift as soon as the mains touch. Watch-out on the replay (I’ve zoomed-in) for the huuuuge black tyre marks left by the main wheels as they switch direction back to the centreline.
Is this a text book crosswind landing or is this pilot heading to the Sim for some refresher training 🤷🏼‍♂️
