That's an experienced operator...

Proof that people get killed by schedules in China as well as in the rest of the world.

In any rational environment (none here, perhaps on a neighboring galaxy) one would delay the lift until the wind died down. But no, the schedule must be kept!

The lose panel behaves like a giant sail. Even with ground crew holding steady lines, it's difficult to hold such load in windy conditions.
