Landing at KORD yesterday. A little breezy on the approach. This is why they call it the windy city: [attachmentid=404]

Stephane [right][snapback]5759[/snapback][/right] </div> I just came out of the clouds at the point the picture was taken and didn't know what the visibility was going to be like down to minimums so I shot this approach via autopilot. When I realized what kind of x-wind I was experiencing I just let it fly itself down to minimums and then disconnected the AP just before coming over the TDZ and then landed it manually.
