I don't know if it's accurate or not, but I read that they were on
Runway 23 and the wind was 29029G43.



I'm confused about something as well. The photo indicates that he
was on RWY 33 and the reports indicate wind was out of 290. The
video clearly shows that he was crabbing to the right by as much as
about 30 degrees. The math doesn't add up, does it?

Either that, or the perspective is skewed in the photo and the "33-15"
sign doesn't correspond to his runway.


It's a maekr indicating that the intersection of 33/15 is approaching. He
was on 23
