A "take home" suggestion would be to practice landing with the nosewheel = held on the white centerline for touchdown and rollout. See how much = crosswind you can handle doing this. It's great training and you can = try it on every landing. Think of it as getting ready for the day you = have to deadstick it onto a narrow road. Condolences to everyone for this tragic accident.
