The following guidelines are advised by Boeing for a crosswind landing. These guidelines assume steady wind (no gusting). These winds are measured at 10 metres (33 ft) tower height for a runway 45 metres (148 ft) in width. Basically, there are three landing techniques which may be used to correct for cross winds: de-crab, crab, and sideslip.
A flight path parallel to and in the direction of the landing runway. It is offset from the runway and opposite the downwind leg. Crosswind leg. A short climbing flight path at right angles to the departure end of the runway. Downwind leg. A long level flight path parallel to but in the opposite direction of the landing runway.
Normal landings [4] Crosswind landings - where a significant wind not aligned with the landing area is a factor [4] Short field landings - where the length of the landing area is a limiting factor [4] Soft and unprepared field landings - where the landing area is wet, soft or has ground obstacles such as furrows or ruts to contend with [4]

Airport layout of Kuala Lumpur Airport, a typical airport with triple parallel landing capabilities. Triple takeoff/landing capabilities are a necessity for many large airports as it allows many aircraft to arrive and depart in a short amount of time. Each country sets its own standards for the separation between runways required for parallel ...
So the analysis would be applied, for example, assuming: Straight and level flight Turn at constant speed Approach and landing Takeoff. The speed, height and trim angle of attack are different for each flight condition, in addition, the aircraft will be configured differently, e.g. at low speed flaps may be deployed and the undercarriage may be ...
