Wonder if they can set up the simulator to practice that or you just close your eyes, gun it and hope you pucker tight enough not to leave a loaf in the seat.

Yea, that and his career.

It happened like 6 months ago, the captain decided to continue the approach on a crosswind component that exceeded the crew and airplanes range. He's lucky that's all that happened.
