The footage was captured at East Midlands Airport on Sunday amid gusts of more than 100mph across Britain. James Chapman, 39, said he watched a few planes land - and the Ryanair was the most "dramatic". The cameraman, from Chesterfield, said: “With the storm it was really bad - as a passenger it would be scary, it was quite dramatic to watch from the outside.
“I took my daughter to the airport to watch the planes - she’s two-and-a-half and likes watching planes come in. “We were doing nothing yesterday so I thought ‘let's go down’. As it lands there's a crosswind so the plane is at nearly a 45-degree angle to the runway and at the last minute it spins back round.”
