Strong crosswinds force pilot to abort landing at Heathrow
Strong crosswinds forced an Aer Lingus pilot to abort his landing at London's Heathrow Airport on Sunday, after gusts violently buffeted the airliner.
A video posted online shows how the plane aborts its landing at the last second after the quick-thinking pilot is forced to pull up.
The dramatic footage was captured by a plane spotter near the airport's perimeter fence. In the footage the plane can be seen wobbling from side-to-side.
Heathrow is one of the world's busiest airports with 475,000 flights a year.
