Airplane crabbing is usually needed because of high crosswinds. The name comes from the way crabs walk sideways across the beach.
Landing in a crosswind situation requires a couple of different maneuvers. When we're at altitude, the aircraft just flies in a crab, and we just go across, kinda sideways. Once we get down to the ground, we can't land with the aircraft in a crab, because that's gonna put a lot of stress on the outside of the landing gear, and could actually cause the landing gear to collapse if we put too much stress on it.
If the crosswinds are severe enough, around 45 miles per hour or so, the pilot does not have enough control to straighten the airplane out and land. If this happens, the pilot will abandon the approach and divert the plane to another airport. These strong winds can prevent the planes from taking off at an airport.
