Looks like a strong but steady crosswind. Each aircraft will have their own published crosswind landing limits, so the pilots wouldn't have attempted the landings if the wind was too strong for the aircraft.
So if the wind unexpectedly picks up beyond the limits what happens then? Park it on a cloud at 25,000ft for a day or two till the wind drops? peter tdci said:
If you search for 'flugsnug' on Youtube, then you'll see this on some of his clips. If you look at this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7P9OAng32F0 then you'll see some spectacular landings!
