Plane's Rocky Descent in Strong Winds Alarms Onlookers


Heavy winds swirling around the Madeira Airport on October 20 made conditions challenging for pilots intending to land on the runway. This video from Flávio Silva highlights how one plane wavered on its descent, leaning heavily onto its right and left sides as it traveled parallel to the sea.

According to Silva, the turbulent landing was scary to watch. Luckily, the plane touched down smoothly before taxiing to the airport.
