British Airways plane thrown by high wind on runway, see viral clip
A British Airways airliner was compelled to call off a landing at the Heathrow airport because of high winds.
As maintained by Sky News, the plane arrived from Scotland’s Aberdeen at around 10:50 am on Monday but the pilot abandoned the scheduled landing as the airliner was battered by powerful winds owing to Storm Corrie.
A clip displayed the airliner beginning a bumpy ascent before the right wing lifts into the air, sending the aircraft dashing down the runway at a dramatic angle.
The aircraft pilot then came up with the decision to abort, before successfully landing the plane at the second attempt.
Here's the video:

A full-on Touch and go, with a tail strike! Watch for the paint dust after contact and watch the empennage shaking as it drags. The pilot deserves a medal! BA training could use this in a scenario - happy to send the footage chaps 😉#aviation #AvGeek pic.twitter.com/ibXjmVJGiT
