This is the dramatic moment a Guernsey plane directed to Birmingham’s BHX airport in England lurched violently as it touched down at the West Midlands airport.

The twin-propeller plane struggled to land today (November 7) due to strong crosswinds that buffeted the aircraft from side to side.

As the pilots touched down, a big gust of wind caught the fuselage and tipped in towards the runway, careering along on two wheels, almost clipping the tarmac.

A replay of the scary moment shows how the plane is pushed off the central line before the pilots regained control.

The plane landed at 12.25 pm to the relief of the passengers who had experienced the terrifying landing.

Wind speeds of up to 70 mph are expected to batter the United Kingdom over the next few days.
