Plane bails out of landing at the last second due to heavy cross winds

Dramatic footage of a passenger aircraft bailing out of a landing at the last second at Madeira Airport due to heavy crosswinds. The video, filmed on February 18 on the Portuguese island, shows the plane wobbling dramatically in the wind as it descends, before it pulls out of the landing at the last second. Missed landings are not unusual at Madeira Airport because the crosswinds often cause problems for pilots. The filmer later wrote online: "Missed landing due to heavy crosswinds at Madeira Airport considered one of the most difficult airports of the world." ++CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: THIS VIDEO HAS BEEN LOOPED++
