Storm Noa hit the UK on Wednesday, April 12 bringing strong winds and torrential downpours.

Pilots like the one behind this easyJet Airbus A320neo arriving at Bristol Airport from Dubrovnik at lunchtime (EZY2909) were faced with difficult conditions as they tried to land their planes in the gusty wind but this accomplished pro makes it look easy!

YouTuber MrAviationGuy shared the video with Newsflare and comments: "When the wind is blowing at an angle to the runway direction, the pilots have to face the aircraft into the wind to allow the aircraft to continue tracking towards the runway. This is known as 'crabbing' and makes the plane appear to be flying sideways."
