Terrifying moment plane bounces down runway in massive winds

Chilling vision of a British Airways trying to land in winds of more than 100km/h has gone viral — with spectators watching on in fear.

Video of a British Airways flight bouncing along a runway before aborting a landing amid high winds has gone viral.

Terrifying footage showed the British Airways plane as it tried to land at Heathrow.

The flight, which took off from Aberdeen in Scotland, was battling the elements earlier this week, resulting in the frightening video of the attempted landing.

The flight heads down towards the tarmac but is caught in the high winds from the storm.

The aircraft wobbles, lurching from side to side.

Finally the pilot decides to abort the attempt and lifts the plane back into the air.

And the tail scrapes off the runway as it heads off.

It comes as the UK was blasted by 150kph winds from Storm Corrie.

Severe gusts have left 30,000 people without power in Scotland on top of the 7,000 who were already cut off as a result of Storm Malik.

Northern Powergrid says there are an additional 4,000 people in Northumberland, Tyne and Wear and County Durham without power today.
