Roller coaster ride! Turboprop planes buffered by high winds in aborted Dusseldorf landing

Storm Eberhardt caused lots of trouble and damage in Germany today.

Western Germany especially was affected by the first strong storm of 2019. I filmed at Düsseldorf Airport for three hours today and recorded 30 (!!) aborted landings. I saw more go-arounds than normal landings.

Some planes like the Boeing 787 of All Nippon Airways or an Airbus A320 of Vueling performed a go around and after noticing the strong crosswinds with wind gusts up to 60 knots they didn't return for a second attempt and immediately diverted to other airports.

The B787 was already on approach, made a go around and diverted to London Heathrow (600km away).
