Nervous flyers, look away now. A frightening video doing the rounds on the internet shows the exact moment a plane, affected by terrible crosswind, is forced pull out of landing.
The video, shared by the 'flugsnug' YouTube channel, shows Airbus A321 trying to land at the Birmingham airport when heavy winds made the task impossible. Since being posted on October 1, the video has received over 96,000 views on YouTube.
