BRISTOL AIRPORT DURING STORM CALLUM | DIRECT CROSSWIND! SIDEWAYS LANDINGS, GO AROUNDS...(WITH ATC)

Watch in HD + Fullscreen....Storm Callum made it's way through the UK on the 12th October 2018, causing wide-spread disruption particularly to Wales and the west of England. Bristol was one of the worst hit airports, with winds reaching 46 knot gusts, what's more, the wind was blowing directly across the runway! 😯
I headed up to Bristol Airport (BRS/EGGD) to catch some of the action. Here is all the footage I filmed between 09:50am and 13:30pm on the 12th October 2018. The wind was directly from the south at around 20-30 knots with gusts up to 46 knots! Check out some of the incredible pilot skill involved as the aircraft are flown in practically sideways! 🛬
Over a dozen planes diverted on the 12th, and a few more on the 13th too. Most went to Birmingham Airport, a couple to Cardiff Airport, and another to Gatwick Airport. Numerous flights were cancelled due to the weather disruption. In this video you'll see the whole thing unfold from when I arrived just before 10am as the wind was only around 25 knots to around 12:30pm when the winds were at their strongest. Lots of aircraft didn't even attempt to land because of the wind strength and direction - for many it was beyond the airline's limitations.
