This is the moment a Ryanair plane struggled to land in Storm Isha winds - ending up at an almost 45-degree angle to the runway.

The footage was captured at East Midlands Airport yesterday (Sunday) amid gusts of more than 100mph across Britain.

James Chapman, 39, said he watched a few planes land - and the Ryanair was the most "dramatic"."

The cameraman, from Chesterfield, Derbys., said: With the storm it was really bad - as a passenger it would be scary, it was quite dramatic to watch from the outside.

"I took my daughter to the airport to watch the planes -"

she’s two-and-a-half and likes watching planes come in.

"We were doing nothing yesterday so I thought ‘let's go down’. "

"As it lands there's a crosswind so the plane is at nearly a 45-degree angle to the runway and at the last minute it spins back round."
