Watch the terrifying moment plane can’t land due to storm

We had tropical storm Dineo and now Britain is in the throws of Storm Doris, which has been causing havoc since she slammed the UK with gusts of almost 100mph winds on Thursday morning.

So, imagine being on a plane trying to fly through it?!
Footage of a skilled pilot attempting to land an Icelandair boeing 757 in gusting winds looks absolutely terrifying.
After a shaky attempt to land the pilot made the decision to abort.
And if that wasn’t scary enough, a fuel emergency was then declared, meaning the plane had to attempt to reach the runway again without diverting.

Luckily for the passengers (who we imagine were terrified), the plane looped around and made a safe landing a short while later.
