landing a 777 in Brazil

Question on this. In several of the shots, it looks like the gear is
aligned with the runway. Is that the case? What other planes have this
feature?
No, commercial jetliners do not have the same type of crosswind landing
gear as does the B-52.
The long focal length of the telephoto lens exagerates the crab angle
of the long fuselage airplane. It's not nearly as severe as it appears.
