    These are apparently from the crosswind landing test flights, so they are probably about as extreme as you're going to see

    Here's a view I've never seen before. This is from the infamous checkerboard at Kai Tak (now closed) which shows the sharp turn at low altitude to line up with the runway. In this case, it's also a crosswind, so you see the crab coming into the checkerboard and the runway.

    Then there's this famous emergency landing incident on the 405 :D
