Strong winds force plane to abort landing at Heathrow Airport
A plane arriving at London’s Heathrow Airport on Monday (February 26) aborted landing after struggling with heavy crosswinds.
Video from Flight Focus 365, a live-streaming service from the airport, showed the aircraft appearing unsteady as it approached the tarmac, before briefly touching down and taking off again.
According to local media, the British Airways aircraft traveling from Berlin managed a safe landing on the second attempt.

See how they tried to get the left tire to touch first, ace
That happened to me flying into la guardia, aborted landing huge gust of wind pushed us off runway 10 feet from landing. Thought I was going to die and get sick with all the turbulence. Worst feeling ever!
Hell’s Bells!
What a pilot how in the hell did he manage that without touching the ground with the back of the plane
But it was on the ground. Why did he go back in the air? Non-pilot here lol
he lost time and went on a second round
But it landed 🤔🤔🤔
This had to be a horrible flight for the one's who were near the wings
This is totally scary. Please can someone tell me that the plane eventually landed safely.
Almost looks like a glider trying to land.
