Rare (few times a year) landing on 04R by UPS. Wind was 30+kts direct Xwind from the NW and I was waiting at the wrong end of the runway when I realized this Mad Dog was entering downwind 04R, I rushed to the other end just in time as the MD11 completed the visual approach, seen here with the upwind wing banked low moments before the de-crab for touchdown. Sierra Nevada mountains in the background snowcapped by recent snow.
