Windy Conditions Force Sideways Landings at Leeds Airport
  • 9 years ago
Ferocious winds battered Leeds in the United Kingdom on January 9, causing a number of flight departures to be delayed at Leeds Bradford Airport. The conditions did not allow for easy landings at the airport either. This video shows a number of planes approaching the runway sideways before managing to land smoothly. It shows just how skilled pilots must be to keep control in windy conditions. Credit: YouTube/Steven Boocock
