Strong Crosswinds at Birmingham Airport, BHX | 27/12/13

On Friday 27th December 2013, busy flights taking people home & away for Christmas and New Year were greeted in Britain with torrential rain and storm force westerly winds rolling across the country, with gusts of over 70mph! So I thought I'd head down to BHX to see how they coped in the extreme conditions.

INCLUDES: Emirates 777, Thomson (FCA) 767 & 757, Thomas Cook 757, Turkmenistan 757, Ryanair 737's, KLM 737, Flybe Embraer 195's, 175's & Dash8's, BMI Regional Embraer 145 and more!

Some very difficult approaches onto RWY15 and some pretty rough touch downs but very impressive skills displayed by all flight crews in this video!
