I would be interested to know how prone Narita is to strong winds. When I flew there a couple of years ago there were certainly very strong winds as we approached. I love flying and usually feel completely safe, but I have to say it was a rather unsettlibg experience. A colleague of mine recalled when he flew in to Narita that the buffetting that his plane received on approach was so strong that he had to brace his feet against the wall in front of him - and he is a very frequent flyer. I know that Japan is open to typhoons at certain times of the year, but some of these occurances were wel outside of typhoon season.
