Qatar Dreamliner 787 Aborted landing at Birmingham during Storm Doris

[@binaryruffian7538]

The 787 dreamliner is really sleek and has beautiful wings. I just flew on a dreamliner with LOT airlines, they have several in different configurations. In my opinion it has the most aesthetically pleasing wings on any airplane. When it’s parked and you’re able to view the different curves of the wing and are able to compare it to the other plane’s generic straight wings with generic tips the realization sets in of how complex and modern this plane is.

I had an aborted landing at Birmingham on a Ryanair 737 last Saturday during Storm Callum. We were about 500 ft from the ground and wind shear got us. I will never forget the feeling of the pilot pointing the nose of the plane up in the air and going full power back up again. I have to admit that I ended up being the vomiter, nothing worse when you can’t go anywhere or do anything about it The plane was all over the place with the wind. Great skills by pilots though. Great video, it’s very similar to my experience!

That day it was crazy, from the "outside" view your plane was REALLY shaky. Before that there was Ryanair flight and a small commercial plane aborting their landings (the small plane was literally blown off the runway about 3-5 secs before touchdown!).

[@Thunderhead357]

I flew back from Malta a couple of years ago (1st time flying) and there were weather warnings for wind and rain at East Midlands Airport. My word there was some serious windbarffing there! We were feet from the runway when the pilot aborted due to severe turbulance. So we came round for a 2nd attempt the same happened, more windbarffing so the pilot made the decision to divert to Manchester for refuelling. Heavy landing but we were on the ground. However we had to fly back to EMA, we finally made it after a 3rd round of more barffing lol. BIG credit to the pilots they got us back in one piece. Incredibly enough it didn't put me off flying. We flew to the U.S. the year after.

That's not necessarily the case. Two layers of air moving in different directions but not mixing together is what causes turbulence.
